We believe Pokémon GO is a game for everyone. Pokémon GO’s growth Product Manager will play a meaningful role in realizing that vision. The ideal candidate will be excited to build fun experiences for Trainers, push the boundaries of location based and augmented reality, and bring Pokémon GO to Trainers across the world. They'll be our authority on the state of mobile gaming in emerging markets; they’ll craft our growth strategy for those markets; and they’ll drive that strategy’s execution. Sound like you?
