Platforms Manager

Firevolt is an indie game development studio building premium co-op experiences for PC and consoles. Our portfolio spans titles like WheelMates and KingFish, with hundreds of thousands of wishlists each. We're a lean, fast-moving team operating across Europe, with an ambitious growth trajectory over the next few years.

We're looking for a Platforms Manager to own our relationships and technical/commercial execution across all major storefronts and console platforms.

What You'll Do?

• Own end-to-end platform management across Steam, PlayStation, and Xbox, including onboarding, certification, submissions, and ongoing compliance;
• Manage platform holder relationships, act as primary point of contact for account managers and partner teams;
• Coordinate release logistics: build submissions, age ratings, store page setup, patch/update cycles, and certification (TRC/TCR) requirements;
• Own Steam store presence optimization: store page structure, tagging, algorithmic visibility levers, wishlist-to-launch mechanics, regional pricing;
• Plan and execute platform-specific marketing beachheads (featuring pitches, front-page placement, seasonal sales, publisher/platform promotions);
• Coordinate crossplay, cross-progression, and platform-specific technical requirements with the dev team;
• Track platform-specific KPIs (wishlists, conversion, refund rates, regional performance) and report to leadership;
• Expand platform coverage over time, including Nintendo, Epic Games Store, and HeyBox;
• Stay current on platform policy changes, new program opportunities, and competitive/featuring trends.

What We're Looking For?

Required:

• 3+ years of experience managing platform relationships and launches for premium games on PC and console;
• Hands-on experience with Steam, PlayStation, and Xbox submission and certification processes (ID@Xbox, PlayStation Partners, etc.);
• Proven track record shipping and supporting live titles across multiple platforms (real launches, not just theory);
• Strong understanding of storefront mechanics: Steam algorithm, wishlist dynamics, regional pricing, discount strategy;
• Excellent cross-functional communication. You'll work closely with production, marketing, and leadership;
• Comfortable operating with autonomy in a small, fast-paced studio environment.

Nice to Have:

• Experience with Nintendo, Epic Games Store, or HeyBox (China distribution);
• Familiarity with co-op/multiplayer-specific platform requirements (crossplay, cross-save, matchmaking certification);
• Experience supporting indie titles through a full launch cycle, from wishlist campaign to post-launch sales events.

Why Join Firevolt?

• Work directly on titles with genuine market traction (hundreds of thousands of wishlists pre-launch);
• High-ownership role. You'll shape platform strategy, not just execute a checklist;
• Small, senior team with direct access to founders and fast decision-making;
• Multiple titles in the pipeline, meaning platform work compounds across a growing portfolio.
