🤩 Would you like to play with us?

Whatwapp is a leading mobile game company in Italy with three major titles, focusing on casual games. The company, comprising around fifty diverse team members, operates in English and supports hybrid work options. Whatwapp is transitioning from a startup to a scale-up, aiming to expand globally and innovate within the gaming industry. We encourage a flat hierarchy, allowing rapid idea execution and learning opportunities directly from our leaders, with a commitment to the personal and professional growth of our employees.

We are looking for a Product Manager to own one of our live titles end-to-end: someone who leads from the front, connects every product decision to business outcomes, and brings the hunger to keep pushing even when the game is already successful.

📖 Your quest will be to:

• Own the vision of your title and define where you want to take it
• Build and maintain the product roadmap, balancing long-term vision with management goals and quarterly priorities
• Execute full development cycles: from specification through to delivery
• Be on top of the game's daily live performance and act on what you find
• Define and run A/B tests to validate assumptions and drive improvements
• Work closely with the data team to understand player behaviour, economy, and monetisation
• Manage cross-functional delivery across customer support, data, monetisation, development, design, and QA
• Oversee live ops cycles and keep the game healthy and growing
• Lead, motivate, and develop your team: building alignment around the product vision, getting people excited about what they're building, and helping them grow
• Communicate clearly with management on roadmap direction and product performance

🎮 To start playing, you will need:

• Strong analytical and numerical skills: you're comfortable in the data, not just summarising it
• Agile project management skills and experience managing roadmaps end-to-end
• People leadership experience: you've managed or led a cross-functional team and know how to create accountability and motivation, not just harmony
• Great communication skills across all levels: from explaining feature mechanics to the team, to presenting roadmap direction and results to stakeholders
• A strategic mindset: you connect product decisions to revenue and business outcomes. You're not just executing against a list; you understand why each decision matters
• Strong Excel / Google Sheets
• Fluent English
• Nice to have: 3+ years of product management experience in F2P mobile games - specifically running a live title, not just launching one. We want someone who has owned a game post-launch: balancing the economy, iterating on live ops, and driving KPIs on an established player base

👤 The type of player we are looking for:

• Hungry for a win: intrinsically motivated by results, not just completion
• A careful and detailed planner who can also move fast
• Data-oriented: you form hypotheses and validate them, you don't just report numbers
• A leader who owns outcomes, not just tasks
• Someone who understands full ownership: you see what needs to be done and make it happen, inside and outside your formal remit
• Critical thinker who challenges assumptions with evidence
• Understands player motivations and can connect them to product and economy decisions

👑 Our company values:

• Use critical thinking: don't assume, validate your gut feeling!
• Take ownership and make it happen!
• Love what you do and have fun doing it!
• Work on the problem, not just the symptoms!
• Don't overcomplicate it, keep it simple and effective!
• Share ideas to reduce bias and improve results!

We're growing fast, moving from a startup to a scale-up, and looking for passionate teammates ready to help us shape the future of gaming!

We value a flat hierarchy where ideas move quickly, learning is constant, and everyone contributes to building great games.

🎮 To start playing, you will need:

• 1+ year of experience in product management, data analysis, or project coordination (internships welcome!)
• AI fluency - you're not just prompting AI tools like ChatGPT or Claude, you're building things with them: automating workflows, prototyping features, generating assets, or integrating AI into real products. You can show tangible output from projects where AI was a core part of how you built, not just how you researched.
• Experience with no-code/low-code or automation tools (e.g. Zapier, Make, n8n, Notion)
• Strong analytical and numerical skills
• Basic understanding of agile workflows and project management principles
• Great communication and teamwork skills

Our policy is 4 days per month at the office, and we decide however we're gonna go. There are people who like to go once every week, or two days every two weeks, four days straight, or even combining the last 4 days of one month with the first 4 days of the next month and only go 8 days straight every two months. Whatever works best for you!

🤩 Would you like to play with us?

We are looking for a Marketing Ops & AI Specialist to join our Marketing Team at Whatwapp. This role plays a key part in keeping our marketing machine running smoothly by spotting blockers across teams and solving them quickly using AI.

As a Marketing Ops & AI Specialist, you’ll be embedded across cross-functional meetings - sitting in with UA, Creative, Analytics, and Product - actively listening for problems, inefficiencies, and gaps. Then you’ll take ownership and fix them, fast, using AI tools as your primary means of execution.

You’ll act as the team’s problem-solver: turning friction into flow, building lightweight automations, and making sure no blocker goes unresolved. AI isn’t just a nice-to-have in this role - it’s how you get things done. You'll have the freedom to use whatever AI tools you need to get the job done, and we'll make sure you have access to them.

📖 Your quests will be to:

• Sit in on cross-functional meetings (UA, Creative, Analytics, Product) and proactively identify blockers, gaps, and opportunities for improvement
• Take ownership of problems and deliver solutions independently - using AI tools as your primary means of execution
• Build lightweight automations, workflows, and processes that make the marketing team faster and more effective
• Use AI to analyse data, generate insights, draft briefs, create reports, and support decision-making across the team
• Act as the connective tissue between teams - translating problems from one function into solutions that work for everyone
• Continuously explore new AI tools, techniques, and workflows that can be applied to marketing operations
• Document and share what you’ve built so the team can learn and scale the approach

🎮 To start playing, you will need:

• Strong AI fluency - you’re already using tools like ChatGPT, Claude, or similar in your daily work and can demonstrate real output from them
• Comfort with data - you don’t need to be a data scientist, but you can pull insights from a spreadsheet or dashboard and make sense of them
• Good written and verbal communication - you’ll need to clearly explain problems and solutions to different teams
• Some understanding of product thinking: you naturally approach problems by defining the issue, prioritising solutions, and iterating quickly
• Experience with or interest in automation and no-code/low-code tools (e.g. Zapier, Make, n8n, Notion, Airtable)

👍 To boost your game, it’s nice to have:

• Background in product management, product operations, or a similar problem-solving role
• Experience working in a fast-paced tech or startup environment
• Familiarity with marketing concepts (UA, CRM, creative production, analytics)
• Gaming industry experience

👤 The type of player you are:

• Passionate about AI and what it can do - you’re the person who’s always trying the latest tools
• You hear a problem in a meeting and you can’t help but start solving it before the meeting ends
• A doer, not a theorist - you ship things, even if they’re scrappy at first
• Comfortable jumping into unfamiliar territory and figuring things out as you go
• A proactive listener - you pick up on what’s not working before someone has to spell it out
• Low ego and high adaptability - no task is beneath you if it unblocks the team
• Team player who helps others level up
• Critical thinker who shares and seeks knowledge

👑 Our company values:

• Use critical thinking: don’t assume, validate your gut feeling!
• Take ownership and make it happen!
• Love what you do and have fun doing it!
• Work on the problem, not just the symptoms!
• Don’t overcomplicate it, keep it simple and effective!
• Share ideas to reduce bias and improve results!

Our Team

We are guided by two fundamental principles: entertaining people and a love of video games.

We have learned that clear, simple and honest communication is the best way to quickly achieve any goal, as long as everyone is on the same page. Our team is made of people who work autonomously, who embrace change and who are unafraid of the unknown.

We are guided by a single collective aim: to create something great, innovative and fun… and to do it fast! We start with the simple assumption that stupid questions do not exist, that ideas guiding our creative processes can always be improved and that data will give us the answers we are looking for. And then we start all over again.
