Director, Games Product Management

Netflix is one of the world's leading entertainment services, with over 300 million paid memberships in over 190 countries enjoying TV series, films and games across a wide variety of genres and languages. Members can play, pause and resume watching as much as they want, anytime, anywhere, and can change their plans at any time.

In this leadership role, you’ll manage a global team of PMs and partner closely with creative, data, and leadership teams to drive game engagement, retention, and portfolio health.

You won’t be building models — but you’ll work closely with data, analytics, and research to interpret insights and guide product direction across titles. Your focus will be on setting the right frameworks, identifying and sizing growth opportunities, and helping game teams make sharp, player-centric decisions around retention, balance, tuning, and game health.

We’re looking for a leader with deep experience in games, a strong point of view on the market, and the ability to lead through influence in a highly cross-functional environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and scale the game product management team across Netflix’s games portfolio, spanning a range of genres and teams.

• Partner with data, research, and game teams to analyze player behavior and game performance, and recommend actions to improve individual titles and portfolio outcomes.

• Foster a culture of excellence, experimentation, and player empathy within the product management team.

• Synthesize key insights and communicate findings, recommendations, and tradeoffs to senior leadership and cross-functional stakeholders.

• Ensure game PMs are effectively embedded in game teams and contribute to game balancing, feature planning, and post-launch iteration.

• Support and coach game product managers embedded on first- and third-party game teams.

• Collaborate with leadership across creative, content acquisition, marketing, and technology to shape roadmap decisions and long-term bets

• Represent product thinking at the leadership level and across the broader games organization

Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in product management, game strategy, or platform-level games leadership, including at least 5+ years managing product managers.

• Deep understanding of game health metrics, live service operations, and the dynamics of player engagement and retention

• Proven ability to translate player and business insights into clear, prioritized actions across both individual games and a broader portfolio.

• Strong communication and storytelling skills, with experience presenting to executive stakeholders and influencing cross-functional decision-making.

• Skilled in guiding teams through ambiguity, managing competing priorities, and navigating organizational complexity.

• Passion for games and interactive entertainment, with a global and inclusive mindset.

• Familiarity with subscription business models and how they impact game engagement and design decisions.

• Experience working across a wide variety of game types, including mobile, PC, and console.

• Comfort working with data dashboards, KPIs, and analytics tools (Tableau, SQL,etc)
