About Block Labs

Block Labs is a premier technology studio operating at the bleeding edge of Web3, Artificial Intelligence, and iGaming. We don't just ship features; we engineer high-scale, production-grade platforms that power the next generation of digital products.

We are a collective of senior engineers, product strategists, and builders who refuse to compromise on architecture. Whether we are designing autonomous multi-agent AI systems, building decentralized financial infrastructure, or architecting high-frequency iGaming platforms, our standard is excellence.

We move fast, but we build for the long term. If you are looking to work alongside a team that values deep technical expertise, thoughtful system design, and product ownership, Block Labs is where you belong.

The Role

We are hiring a Head of Game Production to own the strategy, production, and commercial performance of our growing portfolio of owned casino games, including table game variants, slots, crash-style games, and other originals.

These games have quickly become the highest-performing content inside one of our casinos. We are now scaling this into a repeatable competitive advantage for our upcoming white-label casino provider.

This is a senior product and production leadership role for someone who can turn game concepts into shipped, monetising, high-quality products, selecting the right partners for the right concepts while building the internal product and design function around it.

You will have strategic mandate over the roadmap, with the accountability to decide which titles are built, iterated, or sunset.

If successful, you will help lead the transition from external execution into an internal games studio over time, with potential acquisition and integration upside.

Core Accountability

You own the end-to-end game production system that turns stakeholder requirements into a stable, compliant, performant product portfolio, and keep them running profitably in live environments.

  • Lead production through a hybrid model

  • External agency execution with internal ownership

  • Own roadmaps, prioritisation, and delivery cadence

Performance Ownership

  • Own game performance post-launch, taking accountability for commercial success.

  • Iterate fast on successful titles, take initiative for iteration vs new title decisions

  • Kill weak games quickly, understand reasons for poor performance

  • Build a repeatable learning and improvement loop

  • Live operations and incident management

What You’ll Be Doing
  • Act as the product owner for casino originals across operators

  • Translate commercial goals into clear game specs and priorities

  • Drive strong UX/UI and production quality despite weak external design input

  • Define PRDs, decision logs, success metrics, constraints

  • Ensure games ship quickly, safely, and profitably

Experience We’re Looking For

Required

  • 5+ years in casino game production, product, or iGaming studio leadership

  • Shipped multiple real-money casino games end-to-end

  • Strong understanding of game mathematics, RTP, volatility, and risk mechanics

  • Familiarity with slot, table and crash games

  • Experience managing external studios or distributed delivery teams

  • Commercial mindset with accountability for performance outcomes

Nice to Have

  • Background in top operators or leading originals studios

  • Familiarity with cloud cost optimisation and live-service monitoring

  • Exposure to certification labs and regulated markets

What kind of culture can I expect?
Mature, mission-driven, and low-ego. We value clarity over noise, outcomes over theatrics, and pace without chaos. If you’re one of the smartest minds in your craft and want to build with other experts, you’ll feel at home here.
