What We Need

Making a video game is hard and Producers are the coxswains that help keep teams rowing in the same direction. We help the people who make great games stay focused on making games – we tank everything else.

As an intern working with the Production team you will get the opportunity to learn and practice the core skills and responsibilities of a full-time Producer. Taking notes, coordinating feedback, tracking bugs, and evaluating work-in-progress builds are just a small sample of the types of things Producers do every day. Under the mentorship of a full-time Producer, we’ll work with you to help you build and level-up your production skillset!

What You Will Do

• Learn and practice the various job responsibilities of a Producer
• Help us track in-progress tasks, bugs, documentation, and milestones
• Play in-progress builds and help us figure out what’s working and what’s not
• Analyze/report issues and keep managers informed on the status of assigned tasks and escalate problems as needed
• We know issues come up. The sooner we identify them, the sooner we spot them the sooner we can fix them
• Keep up-to-date on trends in the game industry and entertainment industry

What Will Make You a Great Fit

• An in-progress college degree or equivalent work experience
• A passion for playing and analyzing PC/Console games
• A love of enabling other people to do their best work
• Ability to work independently, managing multiple priorities and tight timelines
• Experience working with Microsoft Excel, Word, PowerPoint and Project preferred, Google Suite, or iWork
• BONUS POINTS if you have experience using Jira
