Operations & Project Coordinator

Overview

Midnight Mansion is crafting the next generation of immersive entertainment, combining interactive art, narrative gameplay, and tech-forward environments to bring unforgettable experiences to life. We’re looking for a thoughtful, action-oriented teammate to help manage the people, projects, and processes that bring these experiences into being.

The Role

This is an in-person role that blends project management, production coordination, and operational support. You’ll work closely with company leadership and department heads to oversee client projects. Responsibilities will include:
  • Coordinate timelines, deadlines, and deliverables across multiple projects
  • Help translate creative visions into action plans with tasks and milestones
  • Facilitate sprint planning, check-ins, and retrospectives when appropriate
  • Assist with recruiting, onboarding, and general hiring coordination
  • Help resolve team blockers and support cross-functional communication
  • Foster a culture of follow-through and accountability (with kindness!)
  • Document decisions, task assignments, and meeting outcomes
  • Track progress across design, fabrication, software, and install
  • Flag misalignments early and help course-correct before they snowball

Who We’re Looking For

    • You are organized, empathetic, and able to adapt to a fast-moving, creative environment
    • You are confident giving directions and following up, doing so with warmth and respect
    • You’re not afraid of ambiguity, bringing structure where needed but aren’t overly rigid
    • You are excited by the intersection of technology, story, and experience
    • You are curious and resourceful, always asking “What’s the next right step?”
    • You understand the basic needs and workflows of software, electronics, fabrication, and installation, even if you aren’t carrying out that work yourself

    Qualifications

    Must Haves
      • Ability to work onsite in Needham, Massachusetts
      • Strong communication skills (both written and verbal)
      • 2+ yrs in project coordination, technical production, or similar role
      • Familiarity with managing or coordinating interdisciplinary teams
      • Passion for immersive or location-based entertainment
      • Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis; we are unable to sponsor applicants for work visas at this time
      Nice to Haves
        • Exposure to interactive technologies like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, lighting/audio systems, or show control
        • Experience in themed entertainment, museum installation, live events, or similar creative industries
        • Comfort with Google Drive, Jira, and/or other project management tools
        • Hands-on experience in any technical/creative field (e.g., prototyping, CAD, scripting, wiring, etc.)
        • You enjoy contributing to creative processes. While your primary role is coordination, you're not afraid to offer ideas and creativity from the team.

        Compensation & Benefits

          • $65,000 - $85,000 a year commensurate with experience
          • Paid Time Off (PTO) + 15+ recognized holidays
          • Flexible hours
