Own end-to-end slot game production: turn concepts and math prototypes into compliant, live titles. Design and refine slot math (RTP, volatility, hit rates), lead decentralized creative and engineering teams, manage roadmap and live-ops, analyze player telemetry to optimize features and LTV, and ensure regulatory/distribution readiness.

The Mission

We aren’t looking for a traditional software project manager or a passive corporate coordinator who just tracks tasks on a timeline. We need a "Slot Architect" to command the production roadmap of our gaming pipeline. Your job is to take raw, high-vibe concepts and forge them into world-class, hyper-retentive iGaming titles that capture player attention with surgical precision. This is a remote, high-availability role for a metric-driven gaming purist who understands that building a legendary slot is an exact mix of math, visual psychology, and relentless kinetic flow.

We value execution, deep industry obsession, and a killer product instinct over standard corporate pedigrees. You are a self-proclaimed slots nerd who deconstructs game loops in your spare time and understands exactly what makes a player hit "spin" again. If you have the data-driven rigor to master slot mechanics, the leadership depth to align decentralized creative teams, and the drive to ship high-performing gaming math models, we will give you the sovereignty to pilot our gaming empire.

Key Responsibilities
  • End-to-End Game Production: Take absolute ownership of the game development lifecycle—guiding slot titles from raw wireframes and math prototypes to final compliance, deployment, and live-ops tracking.

  • Math & Mechanic Architecture: Collaborate deeply with mathematicians to design, stress-test, and refine volatility profiles, RTP (Return to Player) configurations, and hitting frequencies that drive extreme player retention.

  • Cross-Functional Team Leadership: Direct, inspire, and align a decentralized squad of shared specialists—including slot developers, digital illustrators, kinetic animators, and backend engineers—to maintain a flawless delivery pipeline.

  • Ecosystem Sourcing & Roadmap Management: Maintain an aggressive, highly optimized product delivery schedule, identifying emerging iGaming trends and structural player shifts before they hit the mainstream market.

  • Stakeholder & Compliance Communication: Manage clear technical communication loops with data teams, domain architects, and executive partners, ensuring every title is perfectly positioned for regulatory compliance and maximum distribution leverage.

  • Feature Optimization: Analyze live player behavior, spin telemetry, and revenue metrics with cold, analytical rigor—running real-time product tweaks and mechanic modifications to maximize lifetime value (LTV).

The Requirements
  • The "Gaming Veteran": Proven hands-on game production or product ownership experience strictly within the iGaming or digital gaming ecosystem. You know the structural DNA of a winning slot machine.

  • Math Literacy: A rock-solid understanding of the mathematical fundamentals of slots (including hit rates, bonus triggers, cascading mechanics, and payout distribution logic). You speak numbers as fluently as UI design.

  • Elite Project & People Management: A demonstrated track record of leading complex technical teams and organizing fast-moving delivery pipelines without a single feature or timeline metric slipping through the cracks.

  • Hyper-Availability: This isn't a 9-to-5 corporate track. The global iGaming market operates 24/7/365, and major feature rollouts happen fast. You must be available 7 days a week to handle real-time product anomalies, launch window validation, and urgent updates.

  • Operational Autonomy: Completely self-motivated and highly structured; you can manage massive feature charts and launch schedules from your laptop without any hand-holding.

Operational Details
  • Location: Fully Remote.

  • Schedule: On-call 7 days a week (Requires high flexibility to handle real-time release cycles, data pivots, and global engineering alignment).

  • Payment: All compensation is processed in digital assets (USDC/USDT).

Why Join Us?

We offer more than just a typical product management seat; we offer the keys to an aggressive, high-stakes iGaming production powerhouse.

  • Extreme Strategic Sovereignty: We value raw output and commercial success over bureaucratic red tape. You will have the absolute freedom to design, test, and ship your gaming models your way.

  • Global Canvas: Your slots and game logic will instantly step onto a worldwide stage, commanding the engagement and attention of thousands of active players every single second.

  • A Culture of Pure Momentum: Join an elite team that moves at lightspeed. You will be constantly building, testing fresh gameplay mechanics, and tracking real-world commercial metrics.

  • High-Growth Upside: We value "potential over pedigree." For a Game Product Owner who continuously scales winning titles and maintains an uncompromised shipping record, there is a clear, wide runway to lead our entire gaming and venture organization.

What you need to know about the Calgary Tech Scene

Employees can spend up to one-third of their life at work, so choosing the right company is crucial, not just for the job itself but for the company culture as well. While startups often offer dynamic culture and growth opportunities, large corporations provide benefits like career development and networking, especially appealing to recent graduates. Fortunately, Calgary stands out as a hub for both, recognized as one of Startup Genome's Top 100 Emerging Ecosystems, while also playing host to a number of multinational enterprises. In Calgary, job seekers can find a wide range of opportunities.
