Console Games Release Manager

We are tinyBuild — an American company with offices in Europe; we are developing and publishing indie and AA games for PC and consoles. In 11 years, more than 60 projects have been released, ranging from large-scale Action-RPG to experimental simulators.

You might have played games like Hello Neighbor, Potion Craft, Pathologic 2, SpeedRunners, Graveyard Keeper, No Time To Explain, and others.

We are looking for a full-time Release Manager based in a central-European time zone or close.

As a Release Management, you will be responsible for preparing a game, from creating a product to a successful launch. Work implies strong communication with multiple internal and external stakeholders to ensure the timely release of our titles for console platforms.

We expect you to be an avid gamer, highly knowledgeable in the field of release management, and passionate about the idea of being a key link in our value chain aimed at releasing great games.

This is a hybrid position, meaning you can either work remotely or relocate to one of our offices in Europe (in the Netherlands, Serbia, or Latvia).
