About Zachary Hines
I am a macro/micro veteran in the mobile games industry with 15+ years experience as a Producer, Manager, Studio Director, and most recently Associate Director of Product. I have a deep, deep passion for games both as a consumer and as a professional. Understanding what makes a product tick and optimizing it in terms of design and efficiency are what gets me out of bed in the morning. I’m equally skilled in guiding new products from concept to joining existing products already in flight. I have a background in Design, and Project Management. My skills and expertise include the following:• Mobile Casual and Midcore F2P Product Management • Mobile Casual and Midcore F2P Production• Core and Secondary/Tertiary game loop design • Meta feature design• Roadmap planning and risk assessment• Game Data Analysis and recommendation setting• Agile Project Management • Partner Relations• People Management • Studio Management• Hiring for Culture and Competence• Process Improvement
