Executive Producer - Marvel Strike Force
Scopely is looking for an Executive Producer to join our Marvel Strike Force team in our Culver City studio hub, or remotely within the US or Canada.
Marvel Strike Force is Scopely's squad-based Hero Collector RPG, housing heroes and villains across the Marvel Universe.
At Scopely, we care deeply about what we do and want to inspire play, every day - whether in our work environments alongside our talented colleagues, or through our deep connections with our communities of players. We are a global team of game lovers who are developing, publishing, and innovating the mobile games industry, connecting millions of people around the world daily.
What You Will Do
Drive the execution of the game development team to build an amazing F2P cross-platform game that will delight and engage players.
Partner closely with the game team's General Manager to deliver on short—and long-term development objectives and translate these into clear operation and action plans.
Have a detailed understanding of where the project is; the EP will be able to give a detailed (if high level) overview of any part of the project, aware of how each area is tracking, the goals, challenges, as well as managing risk assessment while also defining mitigation plans that deliver on great outcomes for the product.
Responsible for seeing that the creative / product leadership teams are both set up for success when tackling the goals of the business -- must push for alignment in how the team accomplishes the goals, and do so in a way that is supportive of both Scopley and the Studio as well as validating plans through the journey.
Manage the teams day-to-day activities while maintaining close communication with developers to ensure they meet deadlines, objectives and quality standards; be willing to roll up sleeves when necessary to get the job done (whether that is core job responsibilities for EP like tracking the budget, project schedule, etc. or not – e.g. running daily team standups, taking notes, etc.).
Create a culture where production is a “force multiplier” – set the standard for what good looks like by supporting, facilitating, tracking, and overall multiplying the efforts of the team to achieve our goals through producing tangible outcomes.
Drive leadership team to deliver a comprehensive roadmap working closely with Production -- all team members have a clear understanding of what they should be working on based on this roadmap. All team members should have a clear understanding of what they need to work on next if they finish early or are blocked based on the roadmap.
Identify major gaps in current workflows and foundational challenges in how the team operates as a whole, identifying & getting ahead of challenges, and directing leads in addressing complex issues / working to resolve them.
Rallies and connects the full game team behind common purpose. Encourages and demonstrates how to work well across teams, roles and locations by building effective relationships throughout the game org
Plan for morale/motivation challenges. Be a presence of clear support and assurance in any emergency or stressful situation. Give clear support and reassurance to a team in high pressure situations. Provide an environment and channel which team members feel rewarded and empowered. Can rally and focus a large team on a single objective
Deep understanding of how to use velocity and scope at a high level project plan to allow for longer term roadmap planning with limited understanding of the detail of the delivery.
Identify foundational challenges in how the team operates as a whole, getting ahead of the challenges, and directing leads in addressing complex issues
