ABOUT THE ROLE
We’re building a brand-new, US-based, fully remote game studio developing new slot games and we’re looking for a Game Producer to shepherd our games through the design and development process.

  • Facilitate effective communication with other departments involved in the game’s development
  • Conduct postmortems after game completion to identify process improvements and proactively resolve recurring issues
  • Playtest and provide feedback on the game’s math, mechanics, game flow, and visual presentation with an eye toward creating the best player experience possible
  • Regularly play competitors’ games in the iGaming and land-based spaces to stay abreast of industry trends and new mechanics
WHAT WE ASK OF YOU
  • Proven experience as a Game Producer or in a similar project management role
  • Degree in Game Production, Project Management, or a related field, or equivalent experience
  • Strong understanding of the game development lifecycle and game production methodologies
  • Strong project management skills including proficiency with project management tools such as JIRA
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, especially the ability to clearly communicate complex and technical concepts to stakeholders across the globe
  • Passion for games and learning industry trends, emerging game mechanics, and player expectations
  • You should:
    • Be able to confidently coordinate multiple projects simultaneously
    • Be able to move comfortably between strategic and detailed levels
    • Bring strong organization and structure to a fast-moving environment
    • Have excellent problem-solving skills
    • Provide, accept, and act on feedback constructively
