• Work with the development team to set up game telemetry and ensure in‑game behaviour can be reported on and analysed during feature testing phases.
• Collaborate with partner teams to provide analysis on player behaviour throughout testing for the purposes of refining features before launch, leveraging both qualitative and quantitative data.
• Establish Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and appropriate targets to measure feature performance against expectations.
• Perform strategic analysis on the behaviour of players to identify opportunities to improve the player experience after new features are released.
• Receive questions from our partners, determine the best ways that our data can help answer them, and provide insights through reports, presentations, and/or dashboards.
• Lead presentations to diverse audiences including senior management.

What we’re looking for:

• 3+ years of experience in an analytics role performing quantitative analysis with big data to guide product decisions.
• 2+ years of experience independently managing projects and building analysis plans with clear goals & timelines.
• Expertise in SQL and ability to extract data from large data sources with differing structures.
• Proficiency analysing large datasets in programmatic analysis tools (e.g. Python, R).
• Experience with data visualisation software (e.g. Tableau, PowerBI, Looker).
• Experience in statistical modelling (e.g. regression, clustering, predictive modelling).
• Experience translating business questions into clear event tracking specifications and working cross‑functionally to ensure data is reliably captured.
• Passion for playing and thinking about games is considered a plus.
