Avalanche Studios Group is not just a game developer; we are creators of “Worlds Beyond Limits.” Our Stockholm office, located in the heart of Södermalm, serves as an inspiring backdrop for our work. The space itself reflects our portfolio—where the vibrant, lush greenery of theHunter: Call of the Wild meets the gritty, industrial aesthetics of Mad Max.
We believe that the best games are built by teams that feel empowered and connected. Our Hybrid Model is designed to support this belief, mandating three days in the office (Mon/Tue/Thu) to ensure high-bandwidth collaboration and social cohesion, while offering flexibility for focused remote work the rest of the week.
As a Senior Producer, you are the custodian of the development process. You balance the “Big Picture” goals of the studio with the granular needs of the developers on the ground. Your success is measured by the predictability of project outcomes, the health of your team, and the ultimate quality of the game.
Project Management & Delivery
- End-to-End Oversight: You will manage timelines, resources, scope, and quality for a significant portion of the game’s development.
- Risk Mitigation: Proactively identify potential bottlenecks and technical risks before they impact the schedule. You are a systematic problem-solver who turns obstacles into opportunities for optimization.
- Agile Excellence: You will implement and evolve the necessary ceremonies (Stand-ups, Retrospectives, Sprint Planning) to ensure the team remains synchronized and focused.
- Milestone Accountability: Assume full accountability for team progress, ensuring that major deliverables are met with the high standard of “Avalanche Polish.”
People Leadership & Mentorship
- Building the Team: You will participate directly in the hiring process, identifying the right talent to fill key gaps in our new project.
- The Employee Journey: You are responsible for the entire lifecycle of your direct reports. This includes creating a welcoming onboarding experience, conducting performance evaluations, supporting career growth, and managing offboarding.
- Servant Leadership: You act as a “Champion for the Team.” Your job is to remove blockers, facilitate open communication, and nurture a sense of shared ownership and psychological safety.
Workflow & Pipeline Optimization
- Pipeline Evolution: You don’t just follow existing workflows; you help build them. You will identify ways to improve efficiencies within the production pipeline.
- Outsourcing Strategy: Identify sensible opportunities to leverage external partners and outsourcing to scale the project effectively without compromising quality.
We are looking for a veteran producer who combines technical project management skills with high emotional intelligence.
- Experienced Leader: You have at least 5 years of experience as a Producer or Project Manager within the games industry.
- Proven Track Record: You have seen at least one game project through its entire development cycle, from pre-production to ship.
- Methodology Expert: You have a thorough understanding of Agile game development and know how to adapt it to the unique needs of a creative environment.
- Technical Fluency: You are an expert user of industry-standard tools, specifically Jira, Confluence, and Figma.
- Excellent Communicator: Your English skills (both written and verbal) are top-tier, allowing you to bridge the gap between technical, artistic, and executive stakeholders.
- Organization & Detail: You have an “eye for detail” that ensures nothing falls through the cracks in a massive, open-world production.
At Avalanche, we value drive and interest over a perfect resume. Research suggests that under-represented groups often hesitate to apply unless they meet every single requirement. We want to challenge that. If you are passionate about production and excited by the prospect of building a new team, please apply, even if you don’t tick every box.
Diverse perspectives are what allow us to create “Worlds Beyond Limits.” We are committed to an open work environment where everyone is treated respectfully, regardless of heritage, gender, or sexual orientation.
The Philosophy of Production at Avalanche
Building from the Ground Up
Joining a project in its infancy is a unique challenge. Unlike taking over an established pipeline, the Senior Producer in this role must be comfortable with ambiguity. You will be tasked with defining the “rules of engagement” for a new team. This involves more than just setting up a Jira board; it involves establishing the values of the team—how they communicate, how they handle failure, and how they celebrate success.
The Balancing Act: Scope vs. Quality
In the world of AAA open-world development, scope creep is a constant threat. A Senior Producer must have the courage to make difficult decisions. You will work closely with Creative Leads to ensure that the ambitious vision for the game is achievable within the allotted time and resources. Your goal is to deliver a “feature-complete” experience that doesn’t just meet the deadline but exceeds player expectations for quality.
Managing the Multi-Disciplinary Machine
Modern game teams are a complex weave of Artists, Programmers, Designers, and Audio Engineers. Each discipline has its own language and workflow. You will serve as the “Universal Translator,” ensuring that a technical limitation found by a programmer is clearly communicated to a designer before it becomes a bottleneck. By fostering this cross-functional harmony, you ensure a smoother “flow” of assets and code through the pipeline.
