About The Position

As Sr. Producer, you'll lead critical cross-functional initiatives on the Unreal Engine team, working closely with development teams to align projects with business goals, manage risk, and drive delivery. You'll help build the foundation of production practices on the team and scale effective delivery methods across multiple programs. The engine moves fast and priorities shift, so this role is for someone who treats that as the normal operating condition, not an exception, and keeps teams delivering through it.

Requirements

• 10+ years of experience in production or program management within complex, matrixed organizations, ideally in software development on tools, platforms, or engines
• A track record of fostering trust and transparency, managing tension constructively, and giving actionable feedback that grows talent and team capability
• Experience building and scaling production practices and planning frameworks, creating a unified roadmap and driving alignment on strategic priorities
• Strong stakeholder management instincts: building partnerships across technical and non-technical functions and resolving concerns before they escalate
• Comfortable bringing structure and clarity to ambiguous situations, thinking strategically while breaking problems into actionable steps
• Experience aligning interconnected workstreams toward shared milestones, with sound risk mitigation instincts and the flexibility to adapt plans as priorities shift
• Ability to lead through influence rather than authority, enabling autonomy while holding teams accountable for results
• Exceptional communication and facilitation skills, with the adaptability to engage a wide range of teams and technologies as focus shifts
