The Head of Monetization & Economy is responsible for driving the business optimization, monetization models, and game economy strategy across the studio’s portfolio—featuring one live product and two upcoming games in the pre-scale phase. This role is a unique blend of highly analytical business strategy and a deep commitment to the player experience. You will be hands-on in crafting the game economy, while managing and leading the LiveOps and monetization operations functions. By collaborating closely with Product, Creative, and LiveOps teams, you will champion out-of-the-box thinking and leverage cutting-edge AI tools to deliver sustainable growth, compelling in-game campaigns, and an unforgettable player journey.
Key Responsibilities
  • Business & Monetization Strategy: Drive the commercial success of our games by optimizing business models, monetization strategies, and revenue streams, ensuring a balance between high profitability and excellent player retention.
  • Hands-on Economy Design: Take a deeply hands-on approach to building, balancing, and optimizing the game economy and math models. Design the delicate balance of difficulty curves versus reward systems to maximize engagement.
  • Player Experience & Product Collaboration: Share the burden of the overall player experience. Collaborate closely with the Product department to spec features that support monetization, shape the creative direction, and design compelling in-game campaigns and events.
  • LiveOps & Configuration Management: Manage and lead the LiveOps and monetization operations function (including configuration specialists). Oversee the end-to-end execution of events, A/B tests, and economy updates to ensure flawless delivery.
  • Scaling & Launch: Build the foundational economy frameworks for two games currently in the launch/pre-scale phase, driving them from soft launch to successful global scale.
  • Innovation & AI Adoption: Act as a pioneer in adopting new technologies. Leverage AI tools and out-of-the-box thinking to optimize economy balancing, automate workflows, and uncover new monetization opportunities.
  • Data & Experimentation: Analyze player behavior and economy health. Define experimentation strategies and run A/B tests to continuously optimize both business KPIs and player satisfaction.
Requirements
  • Must: 5+ years of experience in Game Economy, Monetization, Product Management, or LiveOps within the gaming industry.
  • Must: Proven hands-on experience designing, building, and balancing complex game economies, math models, and progression systems.
  • Must: Demonstrated experience managing employees and leading operational functions (LiveOps, monetization ops, or configuration teams).
  • Strong understanding of the holistic player experience, including difficulty tuning, reward loops, and the impact of creative assets on player behavior.
  • Strong strategic and business acumen, with the ability to translate complex data into actionable business and product decisions.
  • A forward-thinking mindset with a demonstrated passion for exploring and adopting AI tools and innovative tech in day-to-day work.
  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to partner effectively with Product, R&D, and Creative teams.
