Senior Product Manager

Computer Lunch is an independent mobile game studio dedicated to bringing interesting topics to life through intuitive controls, fun gameplay, and striking graphics. Our flagship title, Cell to Singularity, is an incremental clicker about the evolution of life, culture, and technology. The game has over 10 million downloads across platforms, and was a 2020 Google Players’ Choice award finalist.

We are looking for a full time SENIOR PRODUCT MANAGER with at least 5 years of experience as a product manager on a successful freemium mobile game and a proven track record of improving player retention and monetization. This role is based in New York City, and will report to the CEO.

We are a small studio, so this role will require hands-on involvement in writing specs, using project management tools, and working closely with (and providing guidance to) the studio’s game designers, producers, engineers, and marketers.

Our ideal candidate has a passion for incremental games, gets excited about optimizing features towards business goals, and loves figuring out the best ways to please a devoted fanbase. Familiarity with free-to-play idle games, including the systems that power those games, is a strong plus.
