This is a detail-heavy, process-driven role where consistency and accuracy matter far more than creativity or speed. You will spend most of your time working with spreadsheets, databases, and internal tools to classify and update games.
All candidates must be fluent in business English (written and spoken). Proficiency in any additional language is a plus. We are only considering candidates based in Bulgaria, Romania, or Turkey. Candidates must be legally authorized to work in their respective country, and we do not provide visa sponsorship.

- Stay generally informed about new game releases and updates.
- Use internal operations tools, such as Amplitude, Product Board, and Hotjar, to support daily tasks.
- Assist the Product team with routine tasks, including competitor research, product feature analysis, and other operational work as needed.
Your profile:
- Deeply interested in games - you understand different genres and platforms, and enjoy keeping up with industry news.
- Comfortable with repetitive and structured work.
- Highly detail-oriented, methodical, and accurate.
- Able to work independently and maintain focus for long periods.
- Familiar with spreadsheets or similar data tools.
- No prior work experience is required - we value attention to detail, passion for games, and consistency over previous roles.
- Must be legally eligible to work in the country where you currently reside (we do not provide visa sponsorship).
