Project Manager – Game Development (f/m/d)

About the Position

Project Manager – Game Development (f/m/d)

Chimera Entertainment GmbH is an independent game studio in the heart of Munich. Since 2006, gameplay, creativity, and teamwork have been at the core of everything we do. We've published over 25 titles, including the award-winning Angry Birds Epic and Angry Birds Evolution. We build our own IPs, like our latest release Songs of Silence, and we take on work-for-hire projects from first concept to launch, on PC, mobile, and cross-platform. Today we're one of Germany's leading game studios: a small, international team of 25 people who love what we do.

Responsibilities

• Guide up to three projects from concept to release.
• Be the go-to person for everyone. When someone needs an answer, a decision, or a nudge, they come to you.
• Plan schedules, spot risks early, and solve them together with the team.
• Keep daily development moving: meetings, priorities, blockers.
• Work side by side with our Creative Director, Art Director, and department leads.
• Bring together internal teams, embedded teams, partners, and outsourcers.
• Be the main contact for publishers and partners on your projects.
• Present progress, risks, and budget to our C-level.

Requirements

• You've shipped at least one game and you've done project management in games.
• You speak and write fluent English. German is a big plus, since a lot of our office chatter happens in German.
• You live in or near Munich. We're together in the office Tuesday to Thursday, and Monday and Friday can be home-office days.

Nice to Have

None of these are must-haves. But if any of them sound like you, even better.

• You've built AI agents or automations that make your PM life easier.
• You've worked on PC and console titles.
• You've worked with an international publisher or self-published a game.
• You have a background in product management.
• You don't shy away from the camera or a social post when there's something cool to show.

We Offer

• A creative, casual, and international team in the heart of Munich, just a few minutes from the main station
• Flat hierarchy and short decision paths. Your ideas don't get stuck in layers
• Hybrid setup: office Tuesday to Thursday, Monday and Friday from home if you like
• Deutschlandticket, fully reimbursed
• Lunch budget of up to €50 per month
• Health coaching with a sports scientist and medical training therapist (OLAO Health), online and on-site
• A library full of books, games, and consoles
• Free coffee, drinks, and fruit in the office
• Being part of the rcp family, a network of around 350 developers in studios across Europe, South America, and South Asia
