Job Purpose
The Esports Foundation is building the future of how the world experiences esports, and digital is at the heart of it.
As Director Digital Products, you’ll own fan-facing products such as the websites, mobile app, and gamification experiences - fantasy, pick’em, quests, factions, loyalty, that pull hundreds of millions of fans deeper into the action across EWC and ENC.
You’ll set the product vision and push fan engagement, and own the technology decisions that make it real.
Duties And Responsibilities
- Own the multi-year vision, strategy, and roadmap for all EWC and ENC digital products — web, mobile, gamification, and emerging fan experiences.
- Embed AI across the portfolio in production-ready environments, owning the AI product strategy from use case to shipped, measurable feature.
- Own the gamification and engagement engine — fantasy, pick’em, quests, factions, and loyalty — as the core driver of repeat engagement.
- Translate engagement into revenue, owning the commercial product strategy and in-product monetization.
- Own the technical stack and architectural decisions across the portfolio, making fast build-vs-buy calls while engineering and IT own build and run.
- Spearhead and own global-scale launches and go-to-market for new products and features.
- Author clear PRDs, run the end-to-end RFP and vendor-selection process, and hold agencies and partners to account on delivery.
- Drive decisions with data and a test-and-learn culture across acquisition, engagement, retention, and revenue.
- Build, lead, and mentor a high-performing Digital Product team.
Education And Experience
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in product management, digital media, or a related field.
- 10+ years of experience in digital product management, UX strategy, or platform operations within gaming, esports, or entertainment industries.
Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities
- Hands-on experience bringing AI-enabled products to production — shipping and scaling real features, not prototypes.
- Ability to own technical stack and architectural decisions across a product portfolio.
- Proven success driving engagement, retention, and monetization through digital products.
- Deep expertise in gamification, personalization, and fan/user engagement mechanics.
- Experience owning go-to-market and global-scale launches.
- Strong analytical mindset; fluent in data and experimentation, and fast, well-judged decision-making.
- Excellent leadership, stakeholder management, and communication skills.
Benefits
- Relocation support
- Transportation allowance
- Competitive compensation
- Housing allowance
- VIP medical insurance
- Opportunity to work on a new exciting project with a group of passionate professionals. You will get the freedom to excel and make a real impact
- Diversity disclaimer
- Our mission is to build a diverse organization where our members, regardless of background or identity, have a sense of belonging.
- We genuinely believe that thanks to creating a collaborative environment where different perspectives are valued, we can achieve more.
- Together, we want to reshape the boundaries of what is achievable in the esports domain.
