About our game

Tectonicus: on the edge of war, synthesizes mechanics of turn-based strategies, auto-battlers and card games. To succeed, you are to use strategic thinking when placing heroes, commanders and units on the board, as well as building synergic decks that emphasize each faction’s unique strengths. 

Apart from online and local PvP battles, Tectonicus will be featuring a full-scale story mode. The player will be called to restore the historical truth lost in contradicting accounts and theories, rewritten history and scholars’ disputes, by reincarnating significant battles and living through them as warlords, across centuries. 

About your department

You will be joining the Business-development department which is responsible for overseeing and executing all the commercial and organizational tasks in the startup. These can range from everything to acquiring funding, planning the G-2-M-strategy for our game, collaborating with external business partners, setting up user-studies and SoMe campaigns etc. 

About the job

We need team members who can plan out and oversee our commercial activities. This includes understanding what markets our game will be the most successful in and how it can best compete with other games as we are in a very competitive industry. We also need new business developers to figure out the best ways of monetizing our game and how promotional campaigns can be set up to increase sales. We are also at the stage where we need to acquire the help of external business partners so we also need people who can identify the best partners for our business and maintain good relations. 

Responsibilities:

Depending on your profile, your tasks can be tailored so that you add the most value to our team. However, the more common tasks can involve:

• Support our CEO and producer with planning an effective business model and strategy that plays into the strengths of our game. 

• Help design and optimize our g2m strategies

• Identify relevant business partners as well as manage internal and external stakeholders

• Stay up to date with industry trends and our competitors 

• Assist in applying for funding from various investors and institutions

About you

You have either graduated from or are currently studying in a commercially oriented education and have solid understanding on how to set up and optimize a business. You are a hustler by heart, and understand how to take advantage of opportunities for showing off or selling our game and ensure that there is a strong match between our product and the market. You should also be able to interact and create strong relationships with external business partners.  

You are also a teamplayer who is able to collaborate across fields of expertise and pitch in with your own knowledge. Our team consists of both game developers, designers, creatives, business developers and historians. It is also an advantage if you have the will to put yourself forward and help with collaborative projects like applying for funding and setting up events to show our game off. As we are a so-called indie developer making a videogame it is an advantage if you have knowledge or an interest in these types of products.
