Publishing Manager

Are you an experienced live service games leader ready to shape a new cross-platform shooter from the ground up?

This is a rare opportunity to join an ambitious, unreleased live service project and play a key role in defining its publishing and operational strategy for a global audience.

This role sits at the intersection of creative strategy, live operations, and market execution, with a strong focus on the North American market. You will help build structure, direction, and best practice from a zero base, working closely with development and publishing leadership across regions.

You will contribute to the launch and long-term success of a new multi-platform live service shooting game. The project is still in development, so discretion and comfort working with evolving information are essential. The role requires deep understanding of cross-platform ecosystems, live service publishing, and player expectations in Western markets.

• Contribute to operational planning, live service frameworks, and go-to-market execution
• Apply deep knowledge of North American player behaviour and market dynamics
• Collaborate with development and publishing leadership across international locations
• Help define structure, workflows, and strategic direction from an early-stage foundation
• Provide creative and strategic input across live operations, content cadence, and long-term planning
• Act as a senior stakeholder working across time zones and regions

• 10+ years of experience in live service game publishing, operations, or product leadership
• Strong experience working on or operating live service shooting games
• Proven understanding of cross-platform environments and multi-platform ecosystems
• Deep familiarity with the North American games market and live service expectations
• Experience on comparable titles such as tactical shooters, FPS, or action live service games
• A strategic, creative mindset with the ability to build structure from the ground up
• Comfort working on unreleased projects with limited externally shareable information
• Experience working with agencies or creative partners is a plus

• Working location:
  Korea or Madison, Wisconsin
• Hybrid or on-site depending on location and team needs

If you are a senior live service games professional who thrives in zero-to-one environments and wants to help define the future of a new cross-platform shooter, this role could be an excellent next step.
