Live Product Manager, Game Product Management – EA SPORTS FC

Lead Game Product Manager in the Live Content Team to create the most engaging and rewarding live service experience for our players.

Responsibilities

• Design and manage live content, stories, and features that maximize acquisition, engagement, and monetization throughout the product cycle in any FC mode.
• Support strategic planning for your area, ensuring the goals align with other parts of the product.
• Conduct and communicate in‑depth analysis of in‑game behaviour trends using data insights and strong business acumen to impact top line KPIs.
• Create and communicate concise and inspiring roadmaps, strategies, and execution plans for your product space.
• Be passionate about and represent the voice and needs of our customers and partners within FC.
• Determine measurement plans, testing strategies, execute A/B testing campaigns and conduct post mortems.
• As an individual contributor, support the growth of the product management practice by demonstrating product competencies as an example of the craft at its best.
• Work closely with the game team to create new live service spaces within our game modes, and drive best‑practice strategies for new live service levers in your existing product space.
• Track and develop an expert level understanding of gaming trends and insights from the market.
• Create live content stories and plans using a combination of real and imagined football events.
• Collaborate with internal technical partner groups, being a key stakeholder in technologies that impact the game or live service.
• Partner with Central teams to craft requirements for all player‑facing features outside the game team’s scope.

Qualifications

• Strong communication and writing skills, with experience preparing and presenting decks to various senior stakeholders.
• Excellent organizational skills, with the ability to juggle priorities and projects.
• The ability to adapt to a variety of delivery methodologies in play.
• Highly desirable but not essential: a football fan with a good understanding of the core mechanics of FC and its live features, or willingness to develop this understanding in the role.

Experience

• Successful live service console and/or mobile games having delivered and maintained at least one product through the product life cycle.
• Identifying gaps and iterations in an existing product and choosing a direction to pursue to capture opportunities.
