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 PvE 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.
You will be joining the Business Department, which is responsible for overseeing and executing all the commercial and organizational tasks in our 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.
You will have a say in developing, picking, and choosing tasks from the Trello board. You can prioritize what aligns with your strengths and interests. We encourage you to challenge yourself and take on tasks that may be outside of your comfort zone.
We are looking for 2-3 new 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 help figuring out the best ways of monetizing our game and how promotional campaigns can be set up to increase sales. We also require the help of external business partners, so we need people who can identify the best partners for our business and maintain good relations. And importantly, we are actively seeking funds that have to be managed and budgeted, while we evaluate how we finance our ongoing projects, both in terms of production of our game but also for collaboration with external business partners.
Depending on your profile, your tasks can be tailored so that you add the most value to our team. However, the more common tasks 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 external stakeholders and manage communication and projects with them
Stay up to date with industry trends and our competitors
Assist in applying for funding from various investors and institutions
Stay aware of external physical events and venues where we can show our game off.
Innovate our business activities
Plan and execute our soft funding applications and activities
Support us in developing pitch decks
Conduct market research
You have either graduated from or are currently studying in a commercially oriented education program and have a solid understanding of 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. Ideally, you should also be able to interact and create strong relationships with external business partners.
You are also a team player who is able to collaborate across fields of expertise and pitch in with your own knowledge. Our team consists of game developers, designers, creatives, business developers, and historians. It is also an advantage if you have the will to put yourself forward to help others, like setting up events to show our game off. As we are a so-called indie studio making a video game, it is an advantage if you have knowledge or an interest in these types of products.
You have either recently graduated from or are currently studying a bachelor's, master's degree, or similar with a financial, economics, accounting, commercial, or innovative focus
You can communicate effectively in English, as that is our company language
You possess a commercial mindset and can maintain an overview of a variety of commercial tasks.
You are proficient in Excel and PowerPoint, or the Google equivalent, which we use in the team.
You understand the principles of managing a business and how to use things like the business model canvas, SWOT/TOWS.
You can create and maintain relationships with external and internal stakeholders.
Plusses
You understand budgeting as well as managing income and balance sheets.
You can effectively assess how much money certain projects will require to complete and where to acquire financing for said projects.
You have experience from the video game industry, but a basic knowledge of video games as a product is a plus.
The position can be either onsite, hybrid, or remote, full-time with some flexibility. As we are currently seeking funding, the position will be unpaid, but you can contribute to an internship. Our offices are located in three locations: Copenhagen at Amager/Nørrebro and Frederiksberg.
We plan to carry out two rounds of online interviews (or onsite if possible) in the mid-end of January/February, potentially on a weekend. You can apply as long as this is open.
Starting date: We can have you start in Q1 2026, but you can also sign up for an internship later in 2026. Please note we reply as fast as possible, but not as fast as big corporations, and since we send a lot of mail, some might reach your spam folder, so please make sure to check that folder. We usually reply to emails within 3-4 days. But we are mostly closed in December, so please expect replies in January.
