We’re looking for a Senior Data Analyst to join our team! You’ll be a core voice in shaping how we understand our players and evolve our live game. This role is high-impact and cross-disciplinary — you’ll collaborate with game leadership on key features, live operations, and monetization systems while championing data strategy and analytical rigor. You bring technical expertise, strategic thinking, and a player-first mindset. You can work across both quantitative and qualitative data to tell compelling stories, identify opportunities, and drive better design and product outcomes. You’re also excited to mentor others and help build a studio where great games are made thoughtfully and insightfully.

IN THIS ROLE, YOU WILL

• Partner with design and product leads to define analytics goals, KPIs, and core telemetry needs across combat, PvP, and live ops.
• Lead investigations into player behavior, retention, monetization, and system-level performance.
• Monitor and evaluate live service features and in-game economies, identifying trends, risks, and opportunities.
• Design and interpret experiments (A/B and multivariate tests) to evaluate features and live content.
• Build dashboards, reports, and alerts using Amplitude, Grafana, and other BI tools to track real-time game health.
• Conduct deep-dive analyses on core gameplay, progression systems, and feature usage.
• Collaborate with engineers to ensure proper telemetry design, instrumentation, and data QA.
• Contribute to live operations planning by forecasting outcomes, measuring impact, and recommending improvements.
• Analyze mixed-methods data — combining quantitative telemetry with qualitative feedback from playtests, surveys, and community sources.
• Build analytics pipelines and help define event tracking in a brand new, developing data environment.
• Ensure scalability, clarity, and accuracy as our telemetry and infrastructure grow.
• Play a key role in interpreting internal playtest data to inform feature design and UX decisions.
• Present insights and recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Help establish best practices for data literacy and mentor others across the studio in using data effectively.

EXPERIENCE AND SKILLS

• 5+ years of experience in analytics, with at least 3+ years in games (especially live service or F2P titles).
• Advanced SQL skills and experience working with large, complex data sets.
• Strong foundation in statistics, experimentation, and data storytelling.
• Proficiency in analytics and BI tools, including Amplitude, Grafana, Tableau, Looker, or Power BI.
• Excellent communication skills — you can explain technical findings clearly and persuasively.
• Experience working cross-functionally with product, combat design, system design, and engineering.
• Deep understanding of game design principles, especially around PvP systems, balance, and tuning.
• Familiarity with in-game economy systems and monetization design principles.
• Experience analyzing matchmaking systems, progression curves, player lifecycle, live game dynamics, and behavioral KPIs.
• Experience mentoring others and a passion for helping build a healthy, data-informed team culture.

PLUSES

• Experience leading analytics strategy for a live service or free-to-play game.
• Prior work on player segmentation, predictive modeling (e.g. churn, LTV), or economy balancing.
• Familiarity with progression systems, matchmaking, or live content performance tracking.
• Background in behavioral science, HCI, economics, or cognitive psychology.

WHY WORK WITH US?

• We have a fun, working prototype and some unique marketing levers in our back pocket.
• We are genuine – and we want you to be yourself and seek to foster an inclusive environment with us.
• We embrace diversity and desire to build a team of open-minded individuals with different perspectives.
