Publishing Producer

Publishing Producer

As a Publishing Producer on the Dreamhaven Publishing team, you will be the central planning hub between platform technology, brand and marketing, player services, and game development teams to bring to market new game titles. You will represent the big picture plan and align diverse working teams to rally behind a unified vision that will get us to launch day and beyond. You’ll build relationships with members across a fully cross-functional team to drive clear timelines, requirements, and next steps, and you’ll scout ahead to remove roadblocks and mitigate risks to your projects.

While you don’t need to be an expert in any one particular discipline, you should have strong knowledge of how to build bridges between functional working groups and translate needs clearly between specialties. Do you relish the challenge of building and working in a live operations environment? Do you live and breathe production, and come with experience in publishing and/or game development? And most importantly, are you passionate, curious, kind, collaborative, and a driving force for good? If so, we’re looking for your help as we shape the future of game publishing here at Dreamhaven.

What you’ll do:

• Collaborate with specialists across Publishing and game teams to build and track the high-level launch roadmap for live service initiatives
• Partner with engineering, product, operations, marketing, QA, release management, and community to identify major workstreams, organize them, and keep them moving smoothly to completion
• Be a champion for cross-team discussion around requirements and next steps to keep everyone informed and feeling confident in the mission
• Advocate for the diverse needs of your stakeholders and be a steadfast ally and partner to our game teams and external vendors
• Be an ambassador for your projects as you track project status, risks, and dependencies and ask the right questions to resolve roadblocks and communication gaps
• Cultivate a learning environment that allows us to discover best practices and detailed steps needed to successfully launch a new game project for use on future endeavors
• Partner with other members of production to improve our processes, strengthen our foundations, and build a culture that is inclusive and collaborative across Publishing

What we’re looking for:

• An experienced production craft specialist who has built a tested opinion on best practices, tools, and processes for leading complex project teams throughout their career
• A diligent problem solver who can navigate ambiguity to scout ahead and remove obstacles for their teams before they become blockers
• Strong instincts forged by leading and coordinating cross-functional publishing roadmaps with a focus on launching into ongoing live service
• Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills and can work with a wide variety of disciplines and working styles
• Able to separate the forest from the trees to keep an eye on the big picture while supporting other members of production in accounting for the finer details
• Comfortable delving through ambiguity to bring a clear focus to the project and its next steps
• A love of learning and an eagerness to shape the future of their craft in a period of major growth and change at the studio
• An inviting and warm presence that brings people together and encourages honest and open communication
• Able to travel on a periodic basis to the office (Irvine, CA).

If these things resonate with you and you’re interested in going on a grand adventure with like-minded and passionate people, please reach out! We’re excited to meet you.
