It's an exciting time to join Tactile. We're a diverse team of storytellers, puzzle enthusiasts and casual mobile game creators. Our story began in 2008 in the heart of beautiful Copenhagen, and since then we have experienced continuous growth, establishing ourselves as one of the largest gaming companies in Denmark.

Now we're on a mission to solidify our position as one of the leaders in creating out-of-the-ordinary casual puzzle games.

With more than 300 talented individuals, we are a mix of over 40 nationalities and 43% women.

  • Team Development: Build, mentor, and lead a high-performing team. Foster an inclusive, collaborative, and innovative work environment that attracts and retains top talent.

What we're looking for:

  • Previous experience in leading a game project of larger scale and managing a cross-functional game team.
