It's usually pretty rare to be able to get a job as a level designer (which is what the position sounds like from its description) without any experience, so if you are interested in pursuing a career in the exciting field of video game design, this seems like a good opportunity to get your foot in the door.

They seem to be "under the radar", in that there's not much info out there about the game, which seems odd, since it is in beta (maybe its not open beta, not sure...)
I wouldn't take this job if you had a family to feed or something, but if you want to change careers, and don't mind the cut in pay, then go for it. Doing what you love to do is worth more than the stuff money gets you.
