København, Denmark Tactile Games Aps Full time

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. In more recent years, we have been scaling fast, in big part thanks to the success of a little game called Lily’s Garden. 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.

  • Market Analysis - Stay on top of industry trends, competitor activities, and market opportunities. Leverage insights to inform the product roadmap and live operations strategy.
  • 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.
  • Passion for gaming and a deep understanding of player behavior and market trends in the mobile gaming space.
  • A deep knowledge of free to play mobile casual games.
