SMG Studio is expanding and looking for an experienced game producer.
(Updated for Dec 2021)

We'll be running this project out of the Sydney studio, however we're mostly working from home, so this can be done remotely. Although for this role we will require a min 4hrs crossover on Sydney's timezone 9am-6pm)

You'll be working on new unannounced (and very exciting) console title [Redacted: The Redactening] with other senior producers.

This is a role where you will make a difference and you'll be able to have a sense of ownership and pride in the output of the studio.

Our eclectic mix of games (Moving Out, SP!NG, No Way HomeRISK, Thumb Drift, Death Squared, OTTTD, One More Line and One More Dash) showcase how we don't like to rest on our laurels.

We enjoy making unique, mechanically driven titles that are fun for everyone to play.

You are:
  • Highly organised.

  • Have an eye for quality with the intent on making things better.
  • A good listener and can communicate ideas and opinions and explain complex systems in a clear and concise manner.
  • A problem solver and strategic thinker.

  • Have an in-depth knowledge and passion for games. Mobile games, console games, even board games.
  • Someone who knows how to wrangle a spreadsheet (asset pipeline, production co-ordination, analytics analytics etc) for the forces of good
  • Someone who can manage multiple tasks with ease.
  • Someone who makes themselves indispensable.
  • Humble and level headed with a sense of humour.
  • Australian permanent resident. (We will consider those who require a 457/TSS VISA but this requires someone special)
Bonus points for any of the following;
  • Prior employment at a large or small game developer or digital production agency.
  • Worked on the development & deployment of a console title (Switch, Xbox, Playstation)
  • Worked on the development & deployment of a Steam title.
  • Experience using Jira or Slack.
  • A score of over 100 in One More Line.
  • Experience coding, writing, 3D, photography or any creative field.
Your duties will include, but not limited to:
  • Creating and managing production schedules across existing titles and prototypes
  • Managing daily/weekly WIPs
  • Documenting the outcomes of meetings and allocating and enforcing actions on the team.
  • Organise and document beta testing rounds both local and remotely.
Perks & Benefits:
  •     Remuneration based on experience 
  •     5 weeks annual leave after 2 years (start with 4 weeks. This is fair work law in Australia but sometimes people dont realise)
  •     10 days sick/carer's leave (everyone is entitled to this by law but adding here as some countries dont have this which is silly)  
  •     Increased paid primary carer's leave from 12 weeks to 16 weeks
    •     Superannuation is paid on any unpaid leave (up to 52 weeks)
  •     Increased paid secondary carer's leave from 2 weeks to 4 weeks
