Job Details

At Sunday, we fuel hybrid-casual games by developing and marketing fun, easy-to-play mobile games that consistently top the charts and generate hundreds of millions of downloads globally. Our talented team of developers, artists, designers, and marketers work together to build games that are easy to jump into but hard to put down, striking the perfect balance between enjoyment and monetization. As proud members of the applike group, our primary focus is on leveraging their cutting-edge advertising technology to deliver smart, player-friendly monetization and contribute to a thriving mobile ecosystem. Supported by Bertelsmann, Europe's largest media company, we are equipped with the resources to push the boundaries of the mobile gaming space. Join us as we continue to shape the future of hybrid-casual gaming.

What you will do:

  • Be the operational enabler in our game teams: reduce friction, unblock decisions, and increase the speed of validated learning.
  • Own the tactical coordination across multiple live and in-development games. Not only by managing processes, but by driving momentum, clarity, and ROI.
  • Build and maintain lean production systems that help us run fast, ship often, and focus on what matters: revenue, retention, and LTV.
  • Coach and grow producers and cross-functional teams. Not through rigid playbooks, but by helping them think in MVPs, risks, and impact.
  • Partner with Product, Art, Design, Growth, and BI to align on what to build, what to kill, and what to double down on.
  • Challenge teams to validate ideas early, run smart experiments, and kill fast when needed.
  • Bring budget awareness and prioritization to the table. Not as a blocker, but as a compass for high-leverage decisions.
  • Own external production pipelines and partners where relevant, with a focus on speed, quality, and ROI.

Who you are:

  • 4+ years experience as a Producer in mobile games, ideally in a startup or hybrid-casual environment.
  • Comfortable in fast-moving teams. You don’t wait for instructions, you take initiative, solve problems, and push things forward.
  • Thinks in Gantt charts, MVPs, test results, and kill criteria.
  • Strong understanding of the business of games: how ad monetization and UA work, what moves LTV, what kills games.
  • You’re obsessed with outcomes, not with running clean meetings or ticking off task lists.
  • Confident in prioritizing by ROI, not gut feeling or feature wishlist.
  • Excellent communicator, able to challenge teams with the right mix of data, context, and urgency.
  • You naturally connect strategy to tactics, helping game teams make decisions that move the company forward.

  • Work Where It Feels Good: Our office has a 5th floor Alster lake view, strong coffee, top gear, and way too many snacks. But more than that – it’s a space designed for makers, thinkers, and game-changers to connect, collide, and build.
