Jobs at Sett (Now Hiring) — 8 open

About the Role

We're looking for a Playable Production Lead to own the people, execution, and operations layer of Hermes production. Hermes is our playable ads production team, producing playables for top-tier mobile gaming clients using our internally developed AI tools.

In this role, your main focus will be leading the execution org and turning playable production into a clear, scalable system. You'll directly manage Our Auditors Team Leads and the Operations Managers who keep delivery running. You'll own delivery targets and production readiness across the full execution layer, hold one quality and execution bar across units, and build the systems, reporting, and pipeline that let Hermes scale with clarity and control.

Responsibilities

Key Responsibilities

Team Leadership & Development

• Directly manage and grow the execution leads (Auditor Team Leads and Operations Managers), setting the bar for how they lead and investing in their growth.
• Own performance across the leads and keep the teams healthy, motivated, and retained.
• Build the leadership pipeline, growing high-potential team members into the next leads.

Delivery & Execution Ownership

• Own delivery targets and commitments across the execution org, translating partner priorities into concrete plans.
• Own production readiness across the full execution layer (Auditors, HTML5 Dev, QA, Asset Managers), so work moves cleanly from kickoff to delivery.
• Keep a live read on delivery, get ahead of risk before it becomes a miss, and drive throughput and efficiency without cutting quality.

Workflow, Consistency & Scaling

• Hold one execution and quality bar across all creative units, and define clear ownership across functions.
• Partner with Product, Creative, Partnership Growth, and R&D to keep cross-functional workflows aligned, and drive structural fixes to friction and broken handoffs.
• Own hiring and onboarding, and structure new genre-based units as the org scales.

Operations, Tools & Reporting

• Run production on clear systems and ownership rather than informal knowledge or personal follow-ups.
• Own the operational usability of internal tools (Apollo, Atlas, Cosmo, Logos), and channel production feedback to Product and R&D to shape what gets built.
• Maintain a standing reporting system that gives leadership always-on visibility into delivery and production status.

Requirements

What We're Looking For

• 6+ years of management experience in a high-volume production environment such as a creative agency, animation studio, or post-production studio. Must-have.
• Experience managing team leads or managers, not only individual contributors. Must-have.
• Hands-on background in production, creative, or post-production, so you understand the craft and the people who do it. Must-have.
• Operationally fluent: comfortable owning workflows, dashboards, reporting, and repeatable systems at scale.
• Experience holding quality and consistency across a remote, distributed team working across multiple timezones.
• Comfortable working in a technical, AI-driven environment with internal tools.
• Strong problem-solving mindset, with the ability to spot drift early and drive practical fixes.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to keep teams aligned and stakeholders clearly updated.
• Proactive, decisive, and comfortable operating in a fast-moving startup mid-restructure.
• Fluent English, written and spoken. You'll lead meetings, write documentation, and communicate with global team members.

Bonus Points

• Experience in mobile gaming, playable ads, ad-tech, or performance marketing.
• Experience working with internally developed AI tools, not just consumer products like ChatGPT.
• Experience working with Product and Tech teams on internal tools, automations, or workflow improvements.
