Kristian Telschow

With a career in game development that has been going on since the middle of the 1990s, Kristian Telschow has proven that his ability to retain a fresh approach has never dimmed or dulled. Instead, he has steadily helped operations launch standout titles. Nowadays, he does so as Product Owner at Kerma Games.

Much of Kristian’s career has been in the quality assurance side of the production cycle. His first years were at Acclaim Games, where he stayed for 5 years and became their lead analyst in QA. He then moved to Turbine Games, leading their QA team before joining a couple of companies, where he had the same responsibilities.

The next major step in his professional life was joining Kadient Software, where he also served as the lead quality assurance engineer. After 4 years at Kadient, Kristian joined 38 Studios and spent about 2.5 years leading their QA processes.

In 2012, Kristian finally entered the iGaming world, switching to product manager at Game Show Network, working on features and release scheduling for their mobile app. He spent nearly 6 years there, clearly finding his footing in this industry. He then moved to Funkitron, where he had the same role.

As his career progressed, Kristian joined HitPoint Studios as a product manager and, after circa 2 years with the company, took another step forward by becoming the senior project manager at Penn Game Studios, working on the digital product across all of its major verticals.

After more than 4 years with Penn, Kristian joined Kerma Games at the start of 2026, where he now holds the role of Senior Product Owner. He brings a wealth of experience that, over the years, has delivered admirable results and maintained his status as a specialist in product management, making him a particularly valuable SlotsCalendar contributor.
