As a Senior World Designer at welevel GmbH, you'll design and optimize Points of Interest (POIs) and world composition in a procedurally generated medieval world for their AAA survival game, Solid River.  This isn't a traditional level design role; you'll define rules, structures, and tweak procedural logic to generate compelling game spaces. Responsibilities include designing POIs and biomes, establishing guidelines for procedural content, balancing resource distribution and enemy placement, collaborating with other designers, and analyzing player data to enhance engagement.  The game features deep city-building mechanics and AI-driven NPCs.
