  • You are familiar with a wide range of "tools of the trade" to validate assumptions about a game development project, for example: various ways of doing user research & playtesting, using metrics and forecasts from comparable game projects to validate planning assumptions, et cetera.
  • Excellent and personable communicator; with a track record of engaging partners across multiple departments and teams, balancing diplomacy, tact, and credibility.
  • Strong presentation skills and experience collaborating and facilitating communications with global teams across different time zones and all levels of the organization.
  • Highly proficient in using Microsoft Office Suite, PowerPoint, Excel, Word, etc. (and ideally their Google Suite counterparts)
