Deep Silver Fishlabs bolsters its team with trio of senior hires

Hamburg-based developer Deep Silver Fishlabs has hired three new senior members of staff.

Henning Weiss joins the company as Senior VFX Artist, while Phillip Chan has been named as Senior Game Systems Designer and Ankur Suri has been recruited as Senior Marketing Manager.

A bit of everything

Weiss was previously Senior VFX Artist at Bigpoint, and will take over coordination of the visual effects in an upcoming Fishlabs title, as well as other new projects.

Chan joins from Goodgame Studios where he was a Lead Systems Designer. He will be working on a currently unannounced game and his role is to ensure all the various game systems work together.

Finally, Suri, former Digital Marketing & PR Manager at Gameloft, will take responsibility for marketing management across the company, as well as the "marketing-sided supervision of selected games."

The new hires brings Deep Silver Fishlab's employee count up to 92, but the company is still looking to hire for more roles, details of which can be found on its website.
