Job description

We’re looking for an Associate Producer to drive day-to-day execution for a remote, cross-functional team building a mobile game. This role sits at the center of engineering, design, art, QA, and Live Ops.

You will own sprint cadence, maintain production hygiene, and ensure updates ship on time with high quality. This is not a passive coordination role. You are responsible for keeping momentum high, surfacing risks early, and making sure work does not stall between disciplines.

If you are highly organized, comfortable operating in ambiguity, and motivated by shipping consistently in a fast-moving environment, this role is a strong fit.

Why You’ll Want to Join

  • You will be paid in USD (bi-monthly: every 15th and 30th)
  • Up to 14 days of Paid Time Off annually (starting Day 1)
  • Observance of Holidays per company guidelines
  • 100% remote setup so you can work wherever you’re most productive
  • High ownership role embedded directly with product, engineering, and creative teams
  • Work on a globally licensed football gaming platform with real player impact

Timezone Requirement:

  • Must be fully available in Central European Time
  • Ability to maintain overlap with Pacific Time for cross-team collaboration

  • Ensure each sprint has defined priorities and clear definitions of done
  • Keep workstreams aligned and moving across disciplines

Live Ops Execution

  • Own the Live Ops calendar and coordinate event, offer, and content releases
  • Ensure assets, builds, QA gates, and approvals are aligned before launch
  • Build repeatable checklists and processes to reduce last-minute risk

Project Coordination

  • Drive dependencies and handoffs across engineering, art, design, and QA
  • Surface risks early and escalate blockers quickly
  • Maintain alignment across time zones and functions

Tooling and Workflow Ownership

  • Operate inside Linear as the single source of truth
  • Write clear, actionable tickets with strong acceptance criteria
  • Maintain clean boards and enforce workflow standards

Release and QA Coordination

  • Coordinate builds and release readiness
  • Support structured bug triage and prioritization
  • Ensure clear go or no-go decisions before each release
  • Maintain release documentation and update logs

AI-Assisted Execution

  • Use AI tools to accelerate documentation, ticket writing, summaries, and QA triage
  • Improve operational efficiency through lightweight automation

What You Bring

  • 2 to 5+ years of experience in production or project management within mobile casual or free-to-play games
  • Direct exposure to Live Ops cadence and scheduled content updates
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple concurrent workstreams
  • Experience working in startup or fast-moving environments
  • Clear written communication and strong async collaboration skills
  • Experience using Linear or similar project management tools
  • High ownership mindset and strong follow-through

Nice to Have

  • Experience coordinating art and motion pipelines for mobile games
  • Familiarity with build and release workflows
  • Exposure to automated QA processes
  • Understanding of free-to-play fundamentals such as events, offers, segmentation, and tuning
  • Basic comfort reading analytics dashboards and validating event performance

How to Apply

Please include:

  1. Your updated resume
  2. A short 1–2 minute Loom video explaining:
    • Your experience in mobile game production
