My role as a Product Manager encompasses the entire product lifecycle: from the ideation phase, where I help shape the vision and strategic goals, to building a MVP that tests the game’s early potential and market fit.Throughout the development process, I focus on defining and refining the product roadmap, setting and tracking KPI benchmarks, and ensuring a balanced and engaging game economy. My responsibilities extend to developing monetization strategies that align with the game design and audience, and managing Liveops to sustain player engagement and revenue growth. By leveraging analytics and data-driven insights, I aim to optimize player experience and achieve key performance targets at each stage across each title and see our games in the top chart.
