Game Producer: Platform Games

Overview

Atari is seeking a Game Producer to own the full lifecycle of short-session platform games, adapting its classic arcade catalog for Reddit, MSN and emerging channels.

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 and 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

What you'll need

• 3+ years as a game producer or 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

Nice to have

• Passion for retro/arcade gaming and the Atari IP library
• Comfort using data (dashboards, revenue-per-player) to make ship/stop calls

Details

• Remote, with required core overlap with Europe/India time zones
• Contractual, 3 months
• Hybrid, flexible, trust-driven environment
