Slot Game Mathematician / Slot Balance Designer Offline
What you’ll doк
Design, simulate, and balance slot mathematics that delight players, meet regulatory standards,
and achieve commercially proven KPIs.
Responsibilities
-
Devise complete mathematical models for video slots: pay-tables, feature probabilities,
RTP, volatility profiles, jackpots, and max exposure limits.
-
Build large-scale simulations (100 M+ spins) in Python to validate models, stress-test
edge cases, and generate compliance reports for labs (GLI, iTech Labs, etc.).
-
Collaborate with the team to align maths with theme, core loop, and business goals;
adjust parameters to hit target GGR, hit frequency, and retention curves.
-
Perform competitive teardown of market-leading titles, extract insights on why they
succeed, and translate findings into new concepts or balance tweaks.
-
Analyse live performance data, compare against forecasted curves, and recommend
tunings that optimise both player experience and operator revenue.
Requirements
-
2+ years in slot mathematics or equivalent quantitative role within released real-money
or F2P slots.
-
Hands-on participation in at least two commercially successful slot projects (e.g.,
top-ranked on SlotCatalog or GGR > $1 M in the first 90 days).
-
Strong command of probability theory, combinatorics, and statistical inference; ability to
explain complex math to non-technical stakeholders.
-
Proficiency with Python (NumPy, pandas, SciPy or similar) for simulations and data
analysis.
-
Working knowledge of regulatory requirements (MGA, UKGC, etc.) and
responsible-gaming constraints.
-
English B2+ for documentation and cross-team communication.
Nice to have
-
Experience building automated dashboards (SQL + BI tools) that track live KPI drift
against model baselines.
-
Familiarity with progressive jackpots, crash mechanics, or innovative reel formats (e.g.,
Megaways, Infinity Reels).
Engagement model
-
Part-time or contract format is acceptable, provided availability aligns with milestone
reviews and critical simulation passes.
