Mojang Studios is best known as the creators of Minecraft, but we’re also on a mission – to build a better world through the power of play.
Why play? Well, play is at the heart of everything we do. It’s the blocky backbone of our games, the core of our development philosophy, and even the origin of our name. From the relentless experimentation of our endlessly inspiring community to the classrooms where Minecraft has become an essential teaching tool, play is the bedrock of our existence.
As a producer at Mojang, you will lead two cross-functional teams of C++ and Java developers, game designers, audio designers and artists, all working together on a game enjoyed by over 100 million players worldwide. You will be reporting to the senior product manager for the specific product area.
Joining our team means valuing collaboration, creativity and passion while leveraging your knowledge and experience to foster healthy and high performing teams. The team focuses on evolving the Minecraft gameplay experience across multiple platforms by delivering new and improved features regularly.
You will own and prioritize the backlog and continuously prioritize tasks for the team. Working with an agile mindset, you will help plan scope, set up metrics, and measure success. You will collaborate with other producers and stakeholders to coordinate roadmaps, manage risks and dependencies, and align timelines.
To succeed, you need to inspire and motivate the team, evolve and adapt processes, and connect with all crafts. Attention to detail, self-motivation, flexibility, and strong communication skills are essential, as well as strong organizational skills.
