Who are We?

Core product team at PlayShifu, after building 100s of games and products for Gen Alpha, and engaging 2m kids worldwide, are now building Terra, THE world's first metaverse for Gen Alpha. A young startup (spawn out), Terra is being designed as an immersive 3D social, learning and gaming platform for children ages 7+, that also ensures their safety and privacy online. The mind-blowing universe of Terra will help children explore, learn, create, connect, and cultivate a healthy online lifestyle. Terra creator tools empower new generation creators (Gen Z, teachers, designers) to create immersive 3D content, right from their mobile devices! The team building Terra is relatively small, young but extremely passionate, talented and experienced in the full stack (product, tech and design)!

About the Role:

In its current 0 to 1 stage, Terra requires a constant iterative cycle with kids and creators. The ultimate objective is to reach viable virality (k-factor) to cross PMF stage, and then build scalable growth engine and teams to scale beyond.

A hands-on role to start with, you drive experimenting with multiple outreach channels to get product out in the hands of users and drive insights on level of engagement with the product. Then use those insights to create new hypotheses with the product team, and hence drive product iteration. And the cycle continues as we inch towards PMF. Post PMF, the role evolves into a Product Growth leadership role, involving building a team and driving them for scale.
We assure you of only one thing - an experience involving a game-changing (pun intended) brand and tech product with a value-driven mission to meaningfully connect millions of 'Alphanians' worldwide!
