About our game Tectonicus: On The Edge Of War synthesizes mechanics of turn-based strategies, auto-battlers, and card games. To succeed, you are to use strategic thinking when placing heroes, commanders, and units on the board, as well as building synergistic decks that emphasize each faction’s unique strengths.  Apart from online and local PvE battles, Tectonicus will be featuring a full-scale story mode. The player will be called to restore the historical truth lost in contradicting accounts and theories, rewritten history, and scholars’ disputes by reincarnating significant battles and living through them as warlords, across centuries. 

About your department You will be joining the Business Department, which is responsible for overseeing and executing all the commercial and organizational tasks in our startup. These can range from everything to acquiring funding, planning the G-2-M-strategy for our game, collaborating with external business partners, setting up user studies, and SoMe campaigns, etc.  You will have a say in developing, picking, and choosing tasks from the Trello board. You can prioritize what aligns with your strengths and interests. We encourage you to challenge yourself and take on tasks that may be outside of your comfort zone.

About the job We need 2-3 new team members who can plan and execute our promotional campaigns, which include SoMe campaigns, physical promotional campaigns, and collaboration with content creators, etc. We also need team members who can oversee our e-commerce activities, as our game is planned to be a digital release. We are also beginning to collaborate with external events and festivals, so team members who can oversee that as well are welcome. 

Responsibilities: Depending on your profile, whether you are a SoMe specialist or a more general marketing strategist, your tasks can involve Setting up a timeline for regular SoMe posts and other digital promotional content, and then executing it.
