Senior Producer (Mandarin-speaking)

Bellota Labs, Redwood City, CA, USA

Pay: 60.000 - 80.000

Job type: Seasonal


Bellota Labs is a gaming studio building competitive, multiplayer‑first experiences with a focus on live operations, player engagement, and long‑term product excellence.

We are the team behind ClubWPT Gold, the flagship product of the World Poker Tour (WPT) – one of the most recognized brands in global poker. ClubWPT Gold blends competitive gameplay, live‑service systems, and real‑money prize structures, serving a highly engaged player base.

We operate with high ownership, speed, and accountability – and we're looking for leaders who want to build products that last. We're also an AI‑native studio: we expect our producers to use modern AI tools to increase clarity, compress cycle times, and give the team superpowers it wouldn't otherwise have.

What You’ll Do

Own and drive development schedules

across multiple teams, using AI tools to accelerate roadmap drafting, dependency mapping, and scenario planning

Translate high‑level product strategy

into actionable roadmaps and milestones. Leverage AI (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude) to pressure‑test plans, surface edge cases, and draft clear documentation at speed

Partner with Design and Engineering leads

to define scope and delivery timelines, using AI‑assisted estimation and risk‑analysis techniques to sharpen forecasts

Proactively identify production risks and resolve blockers , using AI to synthesize signals across tickets, docs, and meeting notes so nothing falls through the cracks

Facilitate sprint planning, milestone reviews, and cross‑functional syncs.

Use AI‑powered meeting tools (e.g., Granola, Fireflies, Otter, Notion AI) to capture, summarize, and distribute action items – so meetings become decisions, not overhead

Improve production workflows

to increase clarity and velocity. Evaluate and roll out AI‑powered PM tools (e.g., Linear, Jira, Notion, ClickUp with AI copilots) to reduce coordination tax across the org

Coordinate internal stakeholders

across product, engineering, and operations. Use AI to draft crisp status updates, executive summaries, and stakeholder comms that keep everyone aligned without drowning the team in meetings

Support live ops initiatives, seasonal content, and ongoing feature releases , using AI tooling to monitor rollouts, synthesize player feedback, and accelerate post‑mortems

Champion AI in production workflows , continuously evaluating new tools and techniques that elevate team velocity, clarity, and quality – and sharing learnings broadly

What We’re Looking For

5+ years of experience in game production or technical production

Experience shipping and operating a live‑service game

Strong understanding of agile development and production frameworks

Experience working closely with engineering teams on complex systems

Hands‑on fluency with AI tools

in a professional production workflow – for planning, documentation, meeting synthesis, stakeholder communication, and risk analysis – with clear judgment about where AI accelerates the work and where human leadership must lead

Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills

High ownership mentality and bias toward action

Nice to Have

Experience in competitive multiplayer or real‑money gaming environments

Background in technical production

Experience in early‑stage or high‑growth studios

Experience introducing or scaling AI‑powered workflows in a production or PM context

Passion for poker, strategy games, or competitive ecosystems

Mandarin proficiency (preferred but not required)
