What is card production?

Card production refers to the process of manufacturing and personalizing various types of cards, such as debit cards, credit cards, ID cards, and access cards. This includes designing, printing, embedding security features like chips or magnetic stripes, and encoding data specific to the cardholder. The process often requires specialized equipment and strict security measures to ensure card integrity and prevent fraud. Card production is commonly used in banking, government identification, and corporate access systems.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in Card Production, and why are they important?

To thrive in Card Production, you need a solid understanding of manufacturing processes, attention to detail, and often a high school diploma or technical certification. Familiarity with card printing equipment, quality control systems, and sometimes specialized software for personalization or security features is typically required. Strong problem-solving skills, teamwork, and the ability to work efficiently under deadlines help individuals stand out. These skills ensure the accurate, secure, and timely production of cards, meeting both industry standards and client expectations.

What are the typical challenges faced in a Card Production role, and how can they be addressed?

In a Card Production role, common challenges include maintaining high accuracy under tight deadlines, ensuring quality control across large batches, and adapting to evolving security standards. Team members must pay close attention to detail to avoid errors in printing and encoding, and often work collaboratively with quality assurance and IT departments to troubleshoot technical issues. Staying current with industry regulations and continuous training helps address these challenges and ensures smooth, efficient card production processes.

Job description

About the Team

Fanatics TCG is a new Seattle-based trading card game studio within the Fanatics Collectibles family, founded by industry veterans with a long-term mandate: to build enduring franchises that live across tabletop, digital, community, and culture. We're looking for the most skilled and passionate talent in the games industry and beyond to help us create the best TCGs in the world.

Who We're Looking For

We are seeking a Director, Card Production to build and lead the systems, processes, and partnerships required to bring our cards to life - from early design through final print-ready files. This role will partner closely with the Director of Print Operations to define how cards are produced and manufactured at scale. You will be responsible for building the end-to-end card production pipeline, including internal tools, asset workflows, and file preparation.

The ideal candidate combines deep production expertise with strong systems thinking, and understands how to balance precision, quality, and efficiency at scale.

Responsibilities

  • Build the End-to-End Card Production Pipeline
    • Define and implement the card production workflow from concept through print-ready files.
    • Establish systems for card data, templating, versioning, and asset management.
    • Partner with engineering and product teams to determine what should be built internally vs. leveraged from existing capabilities.
    • Help define and prioritize requirements for card toolsets and databases.
  • Develop Internal Tools & Infrastructure
    • Work with technical teams to build or adapt systems for:
      • Card creation and templating
      • Rules and text integration
      • Asset tracking and version control
      • File output and print preparation
    • Ensure systems are scalable, flexible, and support long-term franchise needs.
    • Own Print-Ready File Creation
      • Establish standards and processes for prepress, color management, and file preparation.
      • Ensure all card files meet the technical specifications required for high-quality printing at scale.
      • Build workflows that minimize errors and ensure consistency across large card sets.

Qualifications & Experience

  • 8-12+ years of experience in print production, physical product development, or trading card/manufacturing environments.
  • Experience building or managing production pipelines at scale.
  • Experience working with or alongside technical teams to build production tools or systems.
  • Ability to operate across creative, technical, and operational domains.
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to product quality.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Strong understanding of prepress, printing processes, and manufacturing workflows.
  • Experience with trading cards, tabletop games, or collectible products.
  • Familiarity with card and paper production systems and workflows.
  • Experience working with global printing and manufacturing partners.

Location

All employees of Fanatics TCG are expected to be onsite in our Seattle office five days per week.
