Senior Community Manager

Who We Are

Second Dinner is an award-winning independent game development studio that is here to make the most fun games in the world. Not super fun games. Not SUPER DUPER fun games. We mean the MOST fun games. In fact, our game MARVEL SNAP has earned multiple Mobile Game of the Year Awards (Game Awards, DICE), Best Strategy Game (IGN), and the Apple Design Award for Innovation!

Second Dinner is a remote-first studio, so while we are headquartered in Irvine, California, most of our team is fully remote across the United States. We want the most talented teammates wherever they call home. A diverse team with varied perspectives makes us a better company and will help us make better games. If you can bring something new to the table and expand our point of view, that's a huge upside. 

Community Means Everything to Us

At Second Dinner, we hold our player community close to our hearts. Our Senior Community Manager interacts with players, making sure their feedback is acknowledged and their concerns are addressed, resulting in a positive community around the world for both the game AND the studio. The Community Manager collaborates with various internal teams, such as design, art, and engineering, to express player sentiment and contribute towards making the game the BEST it can be.
