Description

Homa is a global mobile game developer and publisher creating games people love. We partner with studios and internally develop games, having launched over 80 titles, reached over 2 billion downloads, and seen our game All in Hole break into the global top-50 grossing charts. These are milestones, not the finish line. With deep expertise in product and technology, we built Homa Lab, our proprietary platform that gives developers the market intelligence, data tools, and game tech, with AI built-in, to find product–market fit fast and scale mass-market games into lasting experiences players enjoy for years. This is our flywheel: Homa Lab helps studios spot the right ideas early, turn them into games quickly, and reach millions of players. Every launch brings back data and insights that fuel the next hit, making each turn of the loop faster, smarter, and more likely to win. AI supercharges this process, running through everything we do, from everyday tasks to our guiding principles. What powers the loop is talent density. 220+ people from 30+ nationalities, bringing expertise from the world’s best studios and companies. We uphold ambition, curiosity, humility, and focus, and deliver with speed, excellence, and candor. Since the start, we’ve raised $165M from Headline, Northzone, Eurazeo, Bpifrance, and the founders of King, Sorare, and Spotify, people who’ve built and backed the games and platforms we admire, now supporting our drive to create the next ones. At Homa, we are building the next billion-player experiences from the ground up and shaping the future of entertainment. Role As a Publishing Manager – Puzzle Games (Turkey), you will shape Homa’s publishing strategy in the Turkish gaming ecosystem. Reporting to Julien, our COO, you’ll identify and partner with top hybrid and puzzle studios to build a portfolio of global hits. You’ll own the full publishing lifecycle, from prototype to scale, guiding product strategy, evaluating investments, and ensuring market success. Your goal is to make Homa the go-to publishing partner for Türkiye’s most ambitious puzzle game creators. Your main responsibilities will include: Build strong and marketable puzzle prototypes by guiding studios on product strategy, creative direction, and marketability. Turn prototypes into successful launches by defining the product vision, leveraging internal experts, and driving execution through data and iteration. Develop Homa’s footprint in Türkiye by identifying and partnering with top local puzzle and hybridcasual studios. Drive product excellence across multiple puzzle subgenres and act as a trusted advisor for your studios. Own and grow your portfolio’s P&L, from early investment decisions to scaling hits globally. We are looking for someone curious, ambitious, focused, and humble, with a proven track record in game publishing or product management, or a strong analytical and strategic mindset paired with a genuine passion for mobile puzzle games. You’re a great fit if you have: 2+ years of experience in a fast-paced, analytical, or product-driven environment (gaming, consulting, tech, or startups). Strong strategic thinking, product sense, and analytical ability to evaluate market trends, KPIs, and player behavior. Fluency in English and Turkish, with the ability to connect local studios to global publishing strategy. Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to build trust and long-term partnerships. Strong understanding of the mobile gaming ecosystem, ideally with exposure to puzzle or hybrid-casual games. Bonus: Experience launching or managing successful mobile games or scaling digital products in fast-paced environments. Even if you don’t check every box in our requirements, we encourage you to apply. We value diverse perspectives and backgrounds, and we’re more interested in your potential and passion than a perfect match to our checklist. Our Culture At Homa, we prioritise talent, energy, and determination over traditional credentials. We’re building a global community of brilliant, driven people who think boldly, act with pragmatism, move fast, and push boundaries. We believe true innovation comes from diverse perspectives, deep collaboration, and curiosity without limits. Our culture is grounded in four core values: Humility: We recognise that we are always learning, we can always improve and grow - we stay grounded in a clear view of ourselves. Curiosity: We continuously seek the “why” behind the “what” - we explore with purpose and practicality. Focus: Our curiosity takes us deeper, not wider - we obsess over the details and let pragmatism guide our attention. Ambition: We strive for the best - we don’t settle for “good enough,” - we use common sense to reach higher. Building great games starts with building a great place to work. Here’s what you can expect: 🏥 Comprehensive Benefits: Depending on your location, you’ll enjoy a range of perks such as insurance, meal vouchers, public transport, gym memberships, and more. 🏢 Paris HQ Access: Enjoy a desk at our private office in a well-located WeWork building that will give you access to WeWork perks like rooftop view and designed coworking spaces. 🌍 Coworking Access: You will have access to WeWork spaces throughout Europe, along with all their perks and professional office environments. 🌐 Global Team: Collaborate in English with top-tier talent from 35+ countries, spanning Europe, the UK, the US, and more. Diversity fuels our creativity and innovation. ✈️ Team Gatherings: We value time together beyond the screen. Join us for occasional team gatherings, off-site retreats (Workations as we name them) to connect, recharge, and celebrate. 📈 Performance Reviews: We’re committed to your growth. Every six months, we reflect on your progress, recognize your achievements, and align on clear development goals. 💻 Equipment Support: From day one, we’ll provide everything you need to do your best work, including a home office setup allowance if you're working remotely. Where We Hire Our HQ in Paris is a vibrant hub of creativity, collaboration, and connection. From rooftop lunches and coffee chats to after-work apéros and community events, we’ve designed a space people genuinely enjoy - all within a cozy WeWork filled with good energy (and snacks). We also have incredible team members across Europe - from Spain and Turkey to Germany, North Macedonia, Poland, the UK, and more. Whether you’re working from a sunny WeWork in Barcelona or your home setup in Warsaw, you’re fully part of our culture. To keep collaboration smooth, we primarily hire within European time zones (UTC to UTC+3). If you're based there - or planning to be - we’d love to hear from you! Please note: this is one remote position open to multiple countries, not multiple openings.
