About the role

About the Hiring Team

Level Infinite is Tencent’s global gaming brand. It is a global game publisher offering a comprehensive network of services for games, development teams, and studios around the world.

We are dedicated to delivering engaging and original gaming experiences to a worldwide audience, whenever and wherever they choose to play while building a community that fosters inclusivity, connection, and accessibility. Level Infinite also provides a wide range of services and resources to our network of developers and partner studios around the world to help them unlock the true potential of their games.

What the Role Entails

We're looking for someone who plays games and builds with AI — not as separate hobbies, but as one obsession.
You'll use Tencent's AI infrastructure alongside frontier models (Claude, Gemini, and Tencent's in-house tools) to explore what AI-native game development actually looks like — through hands-on prototyping, not slide decks.

⦁Prototype AI use cases across the full game dev lifecycle — design, art, audio, narrative, code, live ops.
 ⦁Evaluate frontier generative and agentic AI tools against real production constraints.
 ⦁Build a grounded framework for how AI fits into each development stage.
 ⦁Track the global AI × games frontier and turn it into actionable team insights.
 ⦁Shape requirements for internal AI creation tools.

Who We Look For

⦁ Gamer — You play games and think about them. Tell us what you play in your application.
 ⦁ AI-native — You reach for AI tools reflexively and stay curious about how they work.
 ⦁ Builder — You turn ideas into real things, fast.
 ⦁ Communicator — Fluent English; Mandarin a plus.
 ⦁ Any game dev experience (jams, projects, mods) or hands-on generative AI work is a strong plus.
 ⦁Currently enrolled or recently graduated — no industry experience required.

Equal Employment Opportunity at Tencent

As an equal opportunity employer, we firmly believe that diverse voices fuel our innovation and allow us to better serve our users and the community. We foster an environment where every employee of Tencent feels supported and inspired to achieve individual and common goals.
