About the Role
As an Associate Producer, you will support the end-to-end development of motion-based games — from concept through launch — ensuring projects stay on track, teams stay aligned, and our player experience remains magical, intuitive, and family-friendly.
You’ll work closely with design, engineering, art, QA, and external partners to coordinate deliverables, manage schedules, and maintain clear communication across stakeholders.
This is an ideal role for someone who loves games, thrives in fast-moving environments, and cares deeply about creating meaningful experiences for kids and families.

- Participate in and help run stand-ups and cross-functional sync meetings
- Track dependencies, risks, and blockers across teams
- Ensure builds and deliverables are on time and aligned with scope
- Prepare milestone reports and stakeholder updates
Motion-Based Gameplay Support
- Coordinate implementation of camera-based motion gameplay systems
- Support playtesting with kids and families; synthesize feedback into actionable insights
- Track motion calibration, usability improvements, and accessibility features
- Ensure experiences are intuitive for a wide age range and skill levels
- Evaluate milestones, write build notes and help compile stakeholder feedback
Kids & Family Focus
- Advocate for age-appropriate design and safety considerations
- Support external brand or IP collaboration workflows when applicable
- Keep fun, accessibility, and inclusivity at the center of development
Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Act as the communication bridge between creative, technical, and business teams
- Partner with QA to prioritize and track bug resolution
- Support publishing needs (build delivery, feature documentation, gameplay capture coordination)
- Help coordinate external development partners when needed
What We’re Looking For
Required
- 3+ years experience in game production or project management
- Experience working on shipped game titles (mobile, console, or interactive platform)
- Strong organizational and communication skills
- Familiarity with Agile/Scrum workflows
- Experience with tools such as GitHub, Notion, Slack, Asana, or equivalent
- Passion for kids, family entertainment, and active play
- Flexibility to collaborate across global time zones, including Asia (particularly Hong Kong), with the understanding that recurring meetings and coordination will be required outside standard U.S. business hours.
Bonus Points
- Experience with motion-based, camera-based, or fitness-style games
- Experience working with licensed IP or external partners
- Background in consumer hardware or platform-based products
- Experience conducting or coordinating playtests with children
Who You Are
- Highly organized and detail-oriented
- Proactive problem solver
- Comfortable operating in a fast-growing startup environment
- Collaborative and low-ego

- Comfortable with ambiguity
- Able to take initiative in a fast-paced environment
Why Join Nex Playground?
- Build category-defining motion gaming experiences

The company completely eliminates the severe systemic friction of modern home entertainment and passive screen time—where consumers face sedentary digital lifestyles, expensive controller replacement overhead, and fragmented health-tracking metrics—by deploying an advanced, AI-powered computer vision play ecosystem.

Home to smash interactive hits like Active Arcade, Fruit Ninja, and Starri, the platform empowers families to transform living rooms into active recreation zones with production-hardened computer vision precision. Under the hood, its sophisticated technical core—backed by over $40 million in growth funding from elite institutional investors like Blue Pool Capital, Mandra Capital, and sports entertainment icons—natively orchestrates decentralized spatial AI execution loops, secure on-device camera processing matching edge privacy boundaries, and its proprietary Nex Motion Development Kit (MDK) for third-party studio scale. What sets Nex apart is its uncompromising dedication to replacing passive screen consumption with healthy, physical momentum; by bridging the gap between performance-intensive machine learning vision graphs and instinctive physical joy, the firm remains the definitive, category-defining cornerstone of modern motion gaming and connected family wellness.
