About Jay Arrera

As a Production Director at Pipeworks, I oversee the portfolio management, business development, client relations, product management, and staff development for various game and lab programs. With over 20 years of experience in the video game and IT industry, I have a proven track record of delivering high-quality products and services across multiple platforms and genres. I specialize in pre-production, production, and live operations of games for console, mobile, desktop, social, and web, working with both original and licensor IP. Some of the titles I have shipped or supported include Spellslingers, Madden 22-24, Call of Duty: Vanguard, The Walking Dead: The Last MILE, Rival Peak, and Adventure Academy. I am also a PMP certified project and program manager, adept at implementing and managing project processes, tools, budgets, and schedules. I am passionate about creating engaging and immersive gaming experiences that delight and inspire players.
