That's No Moon is an independent AAA game development studio founded by veterans of some of the industry's most acclaimed creative teams. The company aims to craft a new generation of narrative-driven, genre-defining experiences that will span both interactive and linear media. With a roster of award-winning talent and decades of experience, That's No Moon is backed by a significant investment from Smilegate, known for the blockbuster 'CROSSFIRE' franchise and the MMO RPG 'Lost Ark'.

📋 Description

• Serve as the supervising production lens for discipline leaders across the studio, giving them clear visibility into the delivery implications of their decisions and driving alignment across functions. • Adopt and drive the existing production plan for closing the current game, while integrating incremental improvements and building a solid foundation for the initial development of the next title, and the overall production methodology for the studio. • Maintain and improve the delivery strategy for the project (eg. how it is structured, phased, and executed through launch). Ensure product vision and roadmaps are translated into feasible development plans within time, budget, and resource constraints. Drive clarity around ownership, priorities, and handoffs across cross-functional teams. • Evolve the production org structure, including how producers are deployed across content and disciplines. Own career development frameworks, leveling, and promotion standards for the discipline. Lead and develop Senior Managers and Production Leads, ensuring the production org operates as a cohesive, high-performing team. • Set and uphold production standards across tooling, tracking, and milestone processes. Ensure consistent reporting on sprint and milestone burndowns, velocity metrics, and delivery risks to keep leadership informed and teams focused. • Monitor project and team health across strike teams and departments, proactively identifying risks and building mitigation strategies. Champion rigorous project management discipline while creating space for creative iteration and problem-solving. Advocate for development practices that protect team wellbeing without compromising delivery. • Own the production headcount budget and workforce plan, including contractor strategy, backfill decisions, and ramp planning, in partnership with Finance and Operations. Represent the production function in executive and publisher-facing forums, communicating project status, delivery risk, and strategic recommendations.

🎯 Requirements

• At least 10+ years of experience in game production, with 4+ years at a senior leadership or director level. • Shipped at least one AAA title in a senior production leadership role, ideally including ownership of preproduction, polish and submission phases. • Experience leading and mentoring a production team across multiple disciplines (design, art, engineering, narrative, audio). • Deep understanding of dynamics of complex projects from feature integration through final content lock. • Bachelor's degree in Production, Business Administration, Project Management, or related field (or equivalent experience).
