Job description

Overview

Skybound is looking for an owner-minded Senior Manager, Publishing to lead go-to-market efforts on Invincible VS and future titles across the Skybound Games portfolio. This individual will be a strategic driver of product marketing across development, marketing and Skybound’s broader entertainment ecosystem.

As the lead on go-to-market strategy, you’ll craft player-centric plans rooted in insights, shape product positioning, and bring campaigns to life in ways only Skybound can. You’ll partner closely with our Development team to ensure our games are launched with intention, creativity, and a unified narrative — across community, content, paid media, digital storefronts, influencers, PR, events, and beyond.

You bring structure to ambiguity, thrive in cross-functional environments, and understand how to move from big-picture strategy to hands-on execution. If you’re passionate about connecting games with players and finding bold, unexpected ways to stand out in a crowded market — this is your role.
