Stockholm, Stockholm, Sweden Embark Full time

We are hiring a skilled Game Update Specialist to join our team at Embark. As part of our production team, you will partner with creative and product stakeholders to support teams in delivering their goals. Your expertise will ensure smooth game updates and content releases across multiple platforms.

At Embark, we believe in empowering game makers—people who have ownership over the piece of the game they're creating. As a Game Update Specialist here, you'll be the reliable point of contact and support for talented creative and technical teams who bring their best to our players.

Key Responsibilities:

  1. Update Planning: Contribute to the update planning process, supporting pre-update preparation and oversight of first-party compliance. Ensure that every update meets platform requirements while navigating submission and certification processes on platforms like PlayStation, Xbox, and Steam.
  2. Issue Resolution: Monitor post-update performance, quickly identifying and resolving issues, coordinating hotfixes or patches as needed, and keeping the wider team informed.
  3. Risk Mitigation: Track and mitigate risks throughout the update cycle, ensuring that potential blockers are identified early and addressed.
  4. Team Collaboration: Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including developers, designers, and QA engineers, to identify and prioritize update requirements.
  5. Communication: Communicate effectively with stakeholders, teams, and external partners to ensure seamless update deployment and ongoing support.

Requirements:

  1. 3+ years of experience in the PC/console space as a producer or release manager.
  2. Update planning and execution experience on PC and console, and an understanding of first party requirements and portals.
  3. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills to troubleshoot and resolve update-related issues.
  4. A proactive, collaborative, and customer-focused approach, with a high sense of ownership over the update process.
  5. An organized and detail-oriented mindset, the ability to thrive within ambiguity and messiness, and the patience to bring the former to tame the latter.
  6. A passion for video games, particularly competitive or live service titles, and a curiosity for learning how they are built and maintained.
