Need a Level Designer for upcoming survival horror game
Greetings, I'm Erasmo from the Dream of Darkness team. We're a small game dev studio based in Mexico City and we're working on a Lovecraftian horror game centered on the fall of the Aztec Empire.
We're currently developing small but playable prototypes to validate our key gameplay features. Our current version is very similar to the early Resident Evil games from the 90's (tank controls, fixed camera angles, solving puzzles, etc.). We have a talented team, however, none of us have much experience with level design, that's where you come in.

We're looking for a level designer that can help us draw maps/blueprints/sketches for our game's environments. It's of the utmost importance that this level designer has a good eye for interior design. We want to upgrade our scenes so they become are more than just empty rooms where you gather items and interact with NPCs. We want to add environmental storytelling to our scenes.
We don't want you to create music or sound effects, but we need you to be able to show our sound engineer where in the scene a particular sound effect (a monster growl, for instance) should play; we don't want you to sculp all the 3D environmental props, but we need you to be able to show us where we should place key items/NPCs on the map.
Examples of the type of level design sketches we're looking for
