Raw Fury is looking for a Release Manager to join our awesome production team. Someone who can be entrusted to take a passion project from a developer and put it in players hands.

  • Risk Management: active participation managing/resolving risks and issues that impact release schedule plans
  • Communication: understand the value of alignment. Share project plans and changes promptly to maintain a clear plan across all teams
  • Submission: delivery of all builds to all platform partners
  • Partner Management: work alongside a business counterpart to represent all operational plans and platform opportunities internally and externally
  • Continuous improvement: capitalize on opportunities to improve the release management process. Understand root cause analysis.
  • Age Ratings: Management of age rating certification

 

YOU MUST BE THIS EXPERIENCED TO GO ON THE QUEST: 

  • You play video games. They are a hobby, and a career choice all at once.
  • You have release experience: meaning you have done pre-cert, content submission, game launch planning, product code requests etc. For several games, on all platforms preferably. You are the supporting role to the game development and publishing teams. You're a shoulder to lean on and you know how to keep cool.
  • You’re proficient in all the games industry tools. Stuff like project management tools, Platform specific tools (Xbox, PlayStation, Switch) etc.

 

If this sounds like you, let’s talk!

We are especially looking forward to applications from people from underrepresented groups - people of color, LGBTQIA+, people with accessibility needs and marginalized genders. Extra hiring luck points if located in a European time zone though.

The Tenets of Fury

Principles We Work by:

  • Treat People like People. Transparency, mutual respect, and trust are the basis of making this work.
  • For Happiness, over Profit. We work with people we like, focus on happiness, and believe money comes as a derivative of people feeling happy and motivated to do their best work.
  • Games are Art. They can touch people. To change minds and hearts. They can transmute an idea into something new.
