Drive the definition and engagement of a list of key collaborators for the character team, ensuring their feedback empowers an iterative loop of continuous improvement.
Facilitate team ceremonies, applying agile methodologies such as, but not limited to, standups, sprint/milestone planning and reviews, playtests, and vision‑setting.
Proactively identify gaps, blockers, and bottlenecks that may prevent the team from achieving their goals in a timely manner.
Exemplify reliability, accountability, and professionalism in all work‑related interactions.

7+ years of AAA game development experience in a production role.
Must have shipped at least one AAA game as a senior producer, producer, or equivalent role.

Strong product approach, passionate about delivering an extraordinary experience to our players.
Ability to work under stress and help your team members navigate various challenges and achieve positive results.
