As a Program Manager you will have an opportunity to shape the use and adoption of Prime Gaming.

You will be responsible for owning the end-to-end launch process and will work with internal stakeholders from Business Development through Quality Assurance to ensure we launch on time with quality. You will also build relationships with external stakeholders by managing developer expectations and ensuring their launch runs as smoothly as possible.

You know how to be scrappy but operate as part of a larger team and business. The role requires innovative thinking balanced with a strong customer and operational focus. You have a 30K-foot view of the launch while staying connected to the details. Leadership looks to you for launch readiness status and go/no go decision making.

A problem solver – you rise up to the challenge of solving problems you or the team have not solved before. You are creative with solutions and look around corners. Just knowing how to do something isn’t enough, you want to know how to works and how you can make it work better.

Fearless – you are not afraid to raise concerns or risks or make suggestions for change. You are self-reliant, have high judgment, and good instincts. You are comfortable with being uncomfortable and aren’t afraid to ask questions.

Communicator – you make sure the information flows by deciding what information to share and the best way to share it. You ensure there is consistent messaging among all deliverables and channels to internal and external audiences. You wrangle disparate ideas into a well-crafted documents organized around central themes and concepts and present them with confidence.
