Product Operations Manager, Gaming

About the Role

As Product Ops Manager - Gaming, you'll lead the in-market rollout and day-to-day operation of Nclusion's gaming products in frontier markets. Today, this represents the foundational thread between our business and customers: where we build the trust, distribution, and agent network that we’ll build financial services on top of. You’ll work directly between Product teams in the US and in-market leadership to actualize the product roadmap - assessing for readiness, gathering feedback, with an eye for stickiness and churn as we launch.

This role is crucial, balancing pace and impact - ensuring that we keep pace on evolving into financial services institutions, but ensuring that pace never outruns the customers we’re looking to serve.

This role is a single opening, where we are able to hire either at HQ (Palo Alto), or internationally with proximity to our markets, with both requiring travel into HQ/markets as needed.

Our team in Palo Alto works together onsite four days a week with one day from home.

What You’ll Do

• Lead end-to-end rollout of gaming products in each market, from launch readiness through go-live, GTM, and stabilization in the network.
• Work directly with Product on product scoping, ensuring market & regulatory realities against technical readiness, and help shape the roadmap with performance and player feedback.
• Track competitive positioning across prize structures, draw formats, pricing, and player experience, and use it to impact product evolution.
• Support Country GMs in sequencing gaming launches against local demand, regulation, and agent network maturity.
• Establish & track gaming & player-protection KPIs (FTD, CAC, LTV, etc.) - analyze the data and turn it into action when something’s looking off.
• Ensure agent readiness, including onboarding, training, and compliance checks.
• Develop SOPs and responsible-gaming checklists that are repeatable market to market.
• Monitor gaming, lottery, and sports betting trends and evaluate fit for Nclusion's markets.

What You Bring to the Table

• 8+ years of experience in gaming, lottery, sports betting, or gambling product operations, ideally in frontier markets.
• Working knowledge of gaming/gambling regulation (licensing, age verification, responsible gambling), distinct from financial services compliance.
• Track record launching or scaling a gaming or lottery product in a high-growth or startup environment.
• History of personally unblocking a stalled launch, not just managing one on a plan.
• Demonstrated experience balancing growth against player-protection obligations; not just a growth-only background.
• Cross-functional experience with Product, Engineering, Compliance/Legal, Marketing, and local GM teams.
• Multilingual fluency is highly valued - French, Spanish, or regional dialects!

• 401k with a match!
• Medical Insurance
• Dental Insurance
