Chief Executive Officer

Joyteractive is a product-first mobile gaming company with one clear goal:
To build a portfolio of category-leading puzzle games.

We’ve already launched our first hit — Cryptogram: Word Brain Puzzle — a breakout success in its niche and one of the top 15 most-played games in the US in 2024. Now we’re ready to scale. We’re taking what worked — and building on it, fast.

We’re looking for a Chief Executive Officer — a sharp, strategic, and deeply product-oriented leader ready to take full ownership of the business side of the company.
You’ll be handed the full toolkit: product, people, capital — and the mandate to grow Joyteractive into a category-dominant portfolio company.

The founder will stay close as a strategic and vision partner, but this is your ship to captain.
You’ll lead through collaboration — building a culture of ownership, and making key decisions together with a high-caliber leadership team you trust.
Turning a one-hit wonder into a scalable hit machine isn’t easy — that’s why we’re not looking for a caretaker. We’re looking for a builder.
