Job Description

Senior Product Manager at Chess.com leading mobile game creation and design. Engaging players with skill-based experiences and utilizing AI for rapid prototyping.

Responsibilities:

  • Lead the creation of new mobile games from concept to launch
  • Design and refine core game mechanics, progression systems, and retention loops
  • Rapidly prototype ideas using AI-assisted tools (LLMs, no/low-code, simulations, mockups)
  • Partner closely with engineering, design, and data to ship high-quality experiences
  • Make thoughtful product decisions grounded in player psychology, metrics, and intuition
  • Balance speed and craft—knowing when to move fast and when to sweat the details

Requirements:

  • 7+ years of Product experience, ideally in games or consumer apps
  • Strong understanding of gaming mechanics (loops, economies, incentives, UX)
  • Excellent product taste—you know what feels good and what doesn’t
  • Technically fluent: comfortable collaborating deeply with engineers and understanding systems, not afraid to read and produce code
  • AI-native mindset: you already use AI to prototype, explore ideas, and accelerate execution
  • Highly agentic: you don’t wait for perfect specs or permission to move forward
  • Ability to build quick prototypes yourself (even if rough)
  • Experience with skill-based games or learning-oriented products

Benefits:

  • 100% remote (work from anywhere!)
