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

As we have reached the stage where we are actively seeking funds and have already got some soft funding that we need to manage, we need a candidate who can manage our budget and evaluate how we finance our ongoing projects, both in terms of production of our game but also for collaboration with external business partners. 


Responsibilities:

You will be responsible for addressing tasks and questions surrounding budgeting, managing our funds, evaluating how much funding we will need to undertake choice projects that are either production-related or related to external projects like promotional campaigns and physical events. We will also need help with finding an effective pricing strategy for our game that strikes a good balance between achieving sales and profit. 


About you

You are either a student studying a bachelor or master oriented around economy, finance and or accounting, or a recent graduate who is eager to apply their learned skills in a fast-paced startup environment. You possess a commercial mindset, and are comfortable working with numbers and spreadsheets in order to assess how we manage our funds and acquire what we need to fulfill our critical projects. 

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.
