Be Deeply Engaged in Execution

Stay close enough to day-to-day execution to understand operational pain points firsthand.
Jump into complex launches, critical releases, production escalations, or live incidents when leadership is needed.
Review schedules, dependencies, workflows, and operational processes—not to micromanage, but to ensure execution quality and remove systemic obstacles.

We believe AI can meaningfully transform how Live Operations organizations execute at scale. In this role, you'll be expected to actively leverage AI-enabled tools to improve operational planning, scheduling, documentation, communication, incident response, production analytics, decision support, and workflow automation.

We value leaders who continually experiment with emerging AI technologies to reduce operational overhead, improve decision-making, increase release quality, and enable teams to move faster while maintaining exceptional standards of safety and execution.

Bonus Points

Experience leading Live Operations for a top-performing mobile free-to-play title.
Experience managing GameOps or LiveOps tooling organizations.
Experience building operational dashboards and KPI frameworks.
Experience with release governance, deployment pipelines, and operational automation.
Experience implementing large-scale production transformations across global organizations.
