Staff Product Manager, Games Ecosystem

Role Description

We are looking for a Principal/Staff Product Manager to lead strategy for Reddit's Games Ecosystem. This person will help define how games become a durable part of Reddit's community and creator platform, while keeping the role broad enough to span both consumer/fandom experiences and developer/creator ecosystem work.

The right PM will be able to bridge multiple worlds:

• Players and fans
• Communities and moderators
• Creators and developers
• Platform and product teams
• Internal and external partners

This is a high-leverage role for someone who can turn a broad opportunity into a focused roadmap, build alignment across many teams, and create the product systems that help games on Reddit become more useful, retentive, social, and scalable.

What You'll Do

• Define the product strategy for Games Ecosystem, including how games fit into Reddit's communities, creator platform, and long-term growth strategy.
• Identify the highest-leverage opportunities across player experience, community participation, creator/developer enablement, game discovery, retention, and ecosystem quality.
• Build a roadmap that balances consumer-facing experiences, community-native features, creator/developer tools, platform capabilities, and ecosystem programs.
• Help communities become richer destinations for game-related participation, including discussion, identity, events, social play, creator content, and other repeatable engagement loops.
• Improve how high-quality games and game-adjacent experiences are discovered, distributed, and revisited across Reddit.
• Partner with Engineering, Design, Data, ML/ranking, DevRel, Community, Partnerships, Trust/Safety, Policy, and other teams to ship durable ecosystem improvements.
• Work with creators, developers, studios, moderators, and community builders to understand what makes games successful on Reddit and where the platform is creating friction.
• Define the right measurement framework for player value, community value, builder success, experience quality, retention, discovery, and ecosystem health.
• Create clear investment frameworks that help leadership decide when to build natively, support creators/developers, partner externally, improve platform primitives, or stop lower-impact work.
• Lead cross-functional teams through ambiguity and help them move from broad strategy to concrete shipped product.

Qualifications

• Experience leading ambiguous product strategy in games, communities, creator ecosystems, developer platforms, social products, marketplaces, entertainment, or consumer growth.
• Strong product sense for what makes games and game-adjacent experiences compelling, repeatable, social, and community-native.
• Ability to reason across multiple sides of an ecosystem: players, fans, communities, moderators, creators, developers, partners, and internal teams.
• Comfort with both consumer product questions and technical platform questions, even if your background is deeper in one than the other.
• Experience using qualitative and quantitative evidence to identify opportunities, prioritize investments, and measure whether a product loop is working.
• Strong cross-functional leadership across Product, Engineering, Design, Data, Community, DevRel, Partnerships, Policy, Trust/Safety, and senior leadership.
• Excellent written communication and decision frameworks that help teams align around ambiguous opportunities.
• Curiosity about games, fandoms, creator tools, AI-assisted creation, developer ecosystems, online communities, and the future of participatory entertainment.
