Our talented team of developers, artists, designers, and marketers work together to build games that are easy to jump into but hard to put down, striking the perfect balance between enjoyment and monetization. As proud members of the applike group, our primary focus is on leveraging their cutting-edge advertising technology to deliver smart, player-friendly monetization and contribute to a thriving mobile ecosystem. Supported by Bertelsmann, Europe’s largest media company, we are equipped with the resources to push the boundaries of the mobile gaming space.

Your Mission

Build and lead our central “Clarity & Impact” unit – a lean, high-leverage operations team that drives project management, prioritization, and ROI-based decision making across the company. You’ll act as a strategic enabler to leadership and team leads, helping Sunday make faster, smarter, more focused decisions – while creating visibility into what moves the needle and what doesn’t.
What you will do:
  • Set up and lead a central business operations function covering project management, operational steering, and controlling.
  • Partner closely with MDs and leads to define, track, and evaluate top initiatives across Product, UA, Monetization, Tech.
  • Ensure company-wide alignment on priorities, timelines, and expected business impact of ongoing initiatives.
  • Build and maintain lightweight dashboards and tools that create visibility without killing speed.
  • Identify bottlenecks, distractions, or low-impact work – and help teams cut or pivot fast.
  • Facilitate quarterly planning and bet-setting rituals (e.g. Top 3 Bets, Kill Sessions, Weekly Ops Reviews).Drive a culture of ownership, speed, and ROI thinking through clarity and enablement – not bureaucracy.
    • Who you are:
  • Strong experience in startup operations, strategy, or PMO-type roles (ideally 3+ years).
  • Previous experience in mobile gaming is a strong plus
  • Ability to translate chaos into clarity – and complexity into simple systems.
  • High business acumen and ROI thinking – you care about results more than process.
  • Empathy for builders – you know how to support teams without slowing them down.
  • Bias for action. You get stuff done, and you help others do the same.
  • Experience building small but mighty ops teams is a plus.
    • Fuel for the Adventure: What You Get at Sunday
  • Build Your Skills, Not Just Your CV: At Sunday, you grow by doing. Real ownership, fast feedback, and steep learning curves are the norm. We don’t just offer development programs – we offer real problems to solve and the space to own them.
  • Start Fresh in Hamburg – We’ll Back You: Moving to a new city? We’ll help you make it happen. From visas to relocation bonuses to language support, we’ve got your back. Our goal: help you hit the ground running and feel at home fast.
  • Flexible Setup for Maximum Impact: We work in a hybrid setup with three core office days, plus flexibility where it matters. You’ll get 30 days of vacation, the chance to work remotely up to 3 weeks per year, and access to our in-house gym and mental health support when you need a reset.
  • Work Where It Feels Good: Our office has a 5th floor Alster lake view, strong coffee, top gear, and way too many snacks. But more than that – it’s a space designed for makers, thinkers, and game-changers to connect, collide, and build.
  • More Than Just a Job – Join the Crew: We don’t just work side by side. We share wins, tackle challenges, and have fun together. Team events, game nights, spontaneous pizza runs – they’re part of the ride. Work hard, play smart.
