Job Descriptiontop
WorldTribe Media is a recently funded Vancouver-based startup developer focused on leveraging media as a catalyst for positive social change. We are seeking talented developers to join us in creating Counter/Story: www.counterstoryonline.com.
Do you desire to be part of a team focused upon a greater purpose? Does having a “sense of ownership” motivate you? Do you aspire to have an impact upon those who play your games? Do you believe in the potential of games to affect positive change? If these are questions that resonate with you, we would love to hear from you.
The Project Manager will work in close collaboration with the project Executive Producer and Creative Director, to own and drive project management for the game and team. This includes championing a development methodology that embraces aspects of Agile and Waterfall approaches, embracing a “common sense” view of project management and team communication. As a distributed team, the Project Manager plays a critical role in brokering effective communication between team members and establishing a development framework that can allow the team to work productively towards goals that will be defined in conjunction with the other projects leads.
Local (Vancouver) candidates are preferred, but this is a distributed team so all talented applicants will be considered. This is a full-time contract position.
