We are looking for a Project Manager to coordinate our efforts in redesigning CRYENGINE's Web Ecosystem to provide universally accessible game production tools to CRYENGINE developers. As a member of the CRYENGINE Product team, you will be working with a Product Owner in developing and maintaining a roadmap for a brand new project, prioritizing requests from stakeholders, tracking the tasks and day-to-day activities of the involved teams, as well as participating in company-wide research.
You will be immersed in matters of web technologies, documentation and tutoring, data analytics, community, and the game production process using CRYENGINE. Experience and interest in each of these fields is key, and so is your willingness to learn, explore and drive.
Not only will you be evaluated for your project and people management skills, but also for your knowledge of software development pipelines, tools + methodologies to maximize team productivity and transparency, communication and documentation skills, and most importantly – the ability to think outside the box.
If this sounds exactly like you, please go ahead and send us an up to date but concise Resume and a cover letter that explains why you’re interested in working with us.
NOTE: Applications without a meaningful cover letter will automatically be declined.
