About the Role
At Fortis, we believe that sustainable growth is driven by a deep understanding of how players discover, evaluate, and engage with our games. As an ASO Specialist, you will play a key role within our Player Growth organization, owning and evolving our app store strategy across multiple titles.
You will operate across the full growth funnel — from discoverability and search visibility to store conversion and alignment with in-game experiences — ensuring our presence in the App Store and Google Play reflects both player behavior and product evolution.
This role sits at the intersection of User Acquisition, Product Marketing, Creative, and Game Teams. You will help connect paid and organic growth into a unified strategy, while also introducing AI-driven workflows to scale experimentation, insights, and execution.

Build and scale a robust experimentation framework across creatives and metadata, continuously improving performance through structured testing, rapid iteration, and data-driven decision making.
Leverage AI-driven tools and workflows to accelerate research, ideation, and execution — from keyword discovery and competitor analysis to creative concepts, copy development, and performance insights.
Partner closely with UA, Product Marketing, Creative, and Game Teams to ensure store strategies are aligned with LiveOps, seasonal beats, and broader growth initiatives.
Continuously adapt to platform changes, algorithm updates, and evolving player behavior, ensuring Fortis remains competitive and forward-thinking in the app store ecosystem.
Contribute to broader growth initiatives by supporting organic loops, including referral systems and invite-based mechanics, ensuring alignment between store presence and in-game systems.
What you’ll need to be successful
Strong experience in App Store Optimization within mobile gaming, with a deep understanding of both the App Store and Google Play ecosystems.
Proven ability to drive both discoverability and conversion through keyword strategy, metadata optimization, and creative testing.

Strong understanding of full-funnel growth, including the relationship between paid UA, organic discovery, store performance, and LiveOps.
Familiarity with AI tools and workflows for research, content generation, experimentation, or performance optimization, and curiosity to continue evolving in this space.
Experience working cross-functionally with marketing, creative, and product teams, with the ability to align multiple stakeholders around shared growth objectives.
Strong analytical mindset, with the ability to interpret performance data and turn insights into actionable strategies.
Excellent prioritization and communication skills, with the ability to operate autonomously in a fast-paced, multi-project environment.
