We're reimagining Atari's classic arcade catalog as short-session games for Reddit, MSN and emerging channels. We need a Game Producer to own the pipeline end to end, shaping game strategy, turning concepts into shipped live titles, and keeping developers, designers, QA and external studios moving in sync.
What You'll Do- Own each title across its full lifecycle: strategy, concept, production, testing, launch and live-ops
- Shape game strategy and pitch new concepts and IP for the roster
- Coordinate internal developers/designers and external studios, unblocking the team to hit timelines
- Run agile/scrum planning: sprint schedules, standups and roadmap tracking across multiple titles at once
- Own and keep the game tracker/dashboard current: status, ownership, timelines
- Manage platform partner relationships (Reddit, MSN): format, submission and certification
- Manage external studio and vendor relationships, and drive IP intake and rights clearance with legal/licensing
- Own KPIs (games live, revenue/daily player, engagement) and drive initiatives to improve them; report weekly
- Manage risk across game timelines: flag slippage early and drive mitigation and release management
- Scout new IP and channels (Discord, YouTube Playables, Telegram) for expansion
Required
- 3+ years as a game producer/associate producer (casual, mobile or browser games)
- Shipped games end to end, managing both internal and external/outsourced teams
- Working knowledge of Unity and HTML5 pipelines, and staying current with platform game technology
- Hands-on experience with agile/scrum planning and sprint scheduling in a live production pipeline
- Strong PM and communication skills; comfortable juggling multiple titles at once
- Experience with platform partner launch/certification requirements
- Experience managing external studio/vendor relationships and timeline risk
Preferred
- Passion for retro/arcade gaming and the Atari IP library
- Comfort using data (dashboards, revenue-per-player) to make ship/stop calls
- Build in gaming, not just hire for it: real ownership and direct access to leadership
- Hybrid, flexible, trust-driven environment
- Zero-cost comprehensive medical cover
- Ambitious, collaborative, genuinely fun team
