Applike Group is hiring a

Director of Product (f/m/d)

Hamburg, Germany

We just launched a new venture with the name Tabbler (https://www.tabbler.io/). Our aim is to establish a new marketing and media category by creating fun and entertaining mobile games (iOS and Android) for leading brands globally. Think of an arcade pizza delivery game from your favorite pizza delivery service or a puzzle from your favorite drink or beverage brand.

You will strongly shape the design of the organization. You own the production of our games for the brands, manage the game developers and other teams, and ensure that we meet the defined expectations of the brands.

We are part of the applike group ecosystem, which gives us an unfair advantage in the market (e.g., >500 mio downloaded games from JustDice and Sunday). Our four sister companies are leading in their verticals. With our fifth venture, Tabbler, we now combine forces and revolutionize the advertising market.

Finally, we are financially backed by Bertelsmann, which ensures that we have the necessary financial means to win this market.

We will strongly grow our team within the next few months.

  • You own and manage the development and sourcing process of highly engaging mobile games, from the ideation phase to the planning stage (incl. definition of features and requirements), to the development stage, and to the final delivery
  • You will be the key link between the business team that defines the commercial requirements and the game developers who will create games that reach them
  • You will analyze the market and understand current trends and interesting game opportunities, which will become success stories for our brand partners
  • You ensure a smooth process for all involved parties by having a great understanding of how to manage and work with people
  • You will run A/B and other tests to ensure that we select the best-performing genre, gameplay, and creatives, all in collaboration with our UA team
  • You will support our efforts in working with the teams from the brands (our customers), to ensure quality and CI guidelines are met
  • As you are among the first employees of our new venture, you will have a huge impact on the success of the business, enabling you to grow your own career path
  • In everything you do, you will be supported by a stellar team.

  • You have a proven track record of successful mobile games where you were responsible for the full production cycle
  • You are structured and well organized to ensure that development projects, involving multiple stakeholders, go along as planned and deadlines are met

  • You are an excellent communicator and speak very good English
