About the Position:

We are seeking an experienced Game Producer who has the instincts and experiences to support and mentor aspiring youth game makers.

The Game Producer will function as the Lead Producer for a portfolio of game projects being developed by members of the Endless Studios community. By working with university students and other aspiring youth game makers to refine their creative concepts, organize their production processes, solve problems and coordinate external production resources, you will help them bring their projects to life.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Instituting project management practices to ensure quality, timely delivery of project outputs;
  • Working with professional, semi-professional and student-led teams to help them achieve their milestones and produce amazing games;
  • Sourcing and managing external development resources to augment our internal and participant teams;
  • Creating systems and procedures for managing project schedules and documentation;
  • Collaborating with game, product and educational design teams to align project content with learning and business goals;
  • Ensuring all key design milestones and deliverables are achieved within budgets and timeframes;
  • Troubleshooting challenges and conflicts as they arise;
  • Communicating effectively both with the game development teams as well as domain experts;
  • Contributing to an exciting, innovative, and supportive work environment.

Desired Experience and Skills:

  • Minimum 5+ years experience in a producing or project management role in entertainment or software development projects (candidates with game industry experience, including prior released titles, strongly preferred);
  • A background or demonstrated strong interest in coaching, training, mentoring or teaching -- and empowering -- less experienced game makers;
  • Experience managing and motivating production teams and delivering project milestone on time and at a high-quality level;
  • Experience managing external teams and integrating them with internal production resources;
  • Ability to communicate effectively with designers, engineers, artists and other game making professionals across geographies and time zones;
  • Passion for creating high-quality games that can both make money and have a positive impact for players and on our society.

It's a bonus if you have:

  • Shipped one or more games built in Unity;
  • Samples of completed Unity game projects you have directly contributed to;
  • Prior experience developing for or supporting learning, especially learning to make games.
