Zynga is proud to announce the opening of a brand-new game development studio in Austin, TX. The studio will partner with NaturalMotion, a Zynga-subsidiary, to develop a premiere mobile action game set in the Star Wars universe. The new Austin studio will collaborate closely with BossAlien, a division of NaturalMotion, and an award-winning games developer based out of Brighton, England.

If this sounds like you, we want to hear from you! Your passion and experience for building original games will be instrumental as we bring together a brand-new collective of developers to take on next-generation thinking and innovative products. As a studio leader, you will act as a key bridge in tight and effective collaboration with your UK-based counterparts.

This is a rare opportunity to play a part in the foundation of Zynga’s first action games studio in North America, and to make your mark on a brand-new franchise in the Star Wars universe and the future of mobile gaming.

Job Purpose

As a Producer at our Austin Studio, you will be a driving force across our teams, defining and owning tactics and strategies to bring our game vision to life.

You will develop close partnerships with peers in leadership, to empower and evangelize for your teams, and to deliver outstanding player experiences on time and at high quality. As a strong facilitator, you will organize your team’s planning, retrospectives, product review meetings, and others to make sure that all teams have common and clear short-term and long-term goals. You will be a supportive leader for the team, keeping our teams aligned and working collaboratively, while removing obstacles and annoyances along the way.

In your role, you will proactively identify, manage and resolve dependencies and communicate the planning, key status, risk mitigation tactics, and development metrics to the team and to studio leadership. You will also be called upon to efficiently analyze problems, react and respond to those quickly, and instrument solutions quickly and independently.

This role will report to our Lead Producer in Austin.
