We are an early but mighty organization with a leadership team of game industry veterans.

About the role:
As a Lead Product Manager at Fortis Games, you’ll partner closely with Design and cross-functional teams to help scale one of our newer portfolio titles—built to engage multiple casual audiences—as it moves through soft launch and toward global release. In this role, you’ll sit at the intersection of product strategy and game systems design, taking ownership of the game’s economic structure, monetization approach, and Live Ops direction. At a pivotal moment in the product’s lifecycle, you’ll focus on translating a strong creative foundation into a scalable, commercially sustainable business. This means shaping progression systems, strengthening economic cohesion, and using disciplined experimentation to drive meaningful performance gains.
What You’ll Achieve:
- Own the evolution of a multi-layered economy spanning multiple vertical progression systems and gameplay loops, ensuring long-term health and cohesion.
- Drive monetization strategy across the product optimizing monetization systems, progression balance, and overall commercial performance.
- Lead structured experimentation across economy and Live Ops, designing and evaluating A/B tests that materially impact retention, ARPDAU, and long-term LTV.
- Identify and close performance gaps during soft launch by translating data signals into clear product decisions and structural system improvements.
- Define and scale Live Ops strategy—including event cadence, segmentation, personalization, and offer testing—to support global launch readiness.
- Partner deeply with design, producers, engineering, analytics, and central teams to align execution with business goals.
- Write high-quality, actionable product specifications that enable speed without compromising system integrity.
- Surface competitive insights and market learnings to inform roadmap direction and portfolio positioning.
- Operate with ownership and accountability—bringing clarity, prioritization, and structured decision-making to a fast-moving environment.
What You’ll Need to Be Successful
- 5–8+ years of product management experience in F2P mobile games, with meaningful exposure to live operations and revenue-driving systems.
- Proven experience contributing to or building a live game with measurable commercial performance; direct KPI ownership is strongly preferred.
- The ambition and conviction to help build and scale a product that defines its category.
- The ability to make hard prioritization decisions under pressure—balancing commercial impact, system health, and player experience with clarity and discipline.
- Deep expertise in monetization design and economy modeling.
- Strong understanding of complex gameplay loops and how economic decisions ripple across retention and engagement.
- Proven ability to design, run, and interpret A/B tests during soft launch or live scaling phases.
- Strong analytical fluency and comfort partnering closely with data teams (Excel, SQL, Looker, or similar tools).
- A systems-thinking mindset with the ability to anticipate second-order impacts of product decisions.
- Experience operating in fast-paced environments with high autonomy and accountability.
- Ability to influence across disciplines and bring alignment in cross-functional, remote-first teams.
- Clear long-term commitment to product leadership within games.
- Genuine passion for building commercially successful, system-driven products.
