- Strategize and implement bundle pricing and event structures, including event leaderboards, pvp rewards, and gacha mechanics, to maximize LTV (Lifetime Value) and ARPPU (Average Revenue Per Paying User).
- Adapt global game features, events, battle passes, and promotions to be culturally relevant and engaging for the China market, adjusting difficulty, rewards, and themes as needed.
- Set up, test, and launch live events within the game using CMS/CRM tools, writing all related notifications and in-game messages.
- Analyze daily player data to understand what drives engagement and spending. Report on the success of specific bundles and events, using data to iterate on future offers.

The hot takeJeff's read on Yodo1
I just added Yodo1 to the Anywhere Atlas a couple months ago, and how I had missed them before is a travesty. Their entire careers page is about employees, not the company. Even better, they talk ad nauseam about working remotely (which is always good for me).
"We love games, we play games, we grow games—from anywhere in the world. Will you add the next country to our map?"
And this: "We don't care about titles, your location, or the hours you work—only your impact on helping developers grow their games." I could NOT word that any better myself, after seeing thousands of careers pages. Oh, and can I get an AMEN for a clear remote work policy?
Work From Anywhere We trust you to decide where and when you work—no matter where in the world.
And of course I love their stance on remote work: "Travel when and where you like, get paid in your currency of choice, and enjoy flexible hours and unlimited paid time off."
