IndieBI is a first-of-its-kind business data aggregation and analytics platform for PC and Console video games.

IndieBI empowers a growing community of 300+ game companies leveraging the software with $3B+ y/revenue, over 100k games and DLCs. It provides game studios with a suite of tools—including a desktop app, data visuals, insight reports—to help understand their sales and marketing information, to analyze it for valuable trends and patterns, and to provide actionable advice to optimize their sales and revenue. Additionally, we are building the dedicated account management team that provides exclusive high‑profile service tailored to the different needs of video game developers and publishers.

IndieBI helps studios and publishers run smarter businesses. It helps them sell more games. And it’s never been done before.

About the Role

At IndieBI we are building business intelligence tools to help developers and publishers of PC and Console games manage their commercial operations more efficiently. Within that team, you will specialize in maximizing the revenue growth potential for our clients, helping in research, optimisation and tools development. This role requires attention to detail, proficiency in working with data, dutiful task management, curiosity to investigate customer needs and requests within the larger context of staying up to date with emerging business trends within the video game industry, and the ability to communicate clearly with both internal and external stakeholders. Join us in this dynamic position where your analytical skills contribute directly to our clients’ success in the competitive realm of video game sales.

Who you are

• You’re an analytical thinker and have the ability to interpret complex data and extract actionable insights.
• You have experience with SQL and Excel for data analysis and reporting, as well as with tools for creating insightful visualisations.
• You understand the domain well or are willing to dive deeply into it. Our results are business‑driven, so to support decision‑making effectively, you need to understand the business first and then the data.
• You have strong written communication skills and the ability to explain complex ideas clearly and persuasively.
• You have willingness to expand your findings into long‑form reports and white papers.
• You’re good at statistics: while we do not require sophisticated forecasting and modelling skills, a fundamental understanding of statistics is really important in this role.
• You’re detail‑oriented, have strong interpretation and reporting skills, you care about accuracy, spotting data anomalies and process inefficiencies.
• You’re able to work closely with cross‑functional teams, especially Account Managers and excellence group members.
• You want to put an effort in documenting processes and findings in a clear, structured manner.
• You are able to work independently, take initiative, and be resourceful in problem‑solving.
• You have a proactive approach to identifying opportunities and addressing challenges.
• You are proficient in English: both speaking and writing.
• It’s a plus if:
  • You have passion for and understanding of the gaming industry.
  • You have knowledge of various online game distribution platforms for both PC and consoles.
  • You have good presentation skills and an ability to convey complex data findings in a clear and compelling manner.
  • You have previous experience in a similar role (preferably as Analyst or Data Scientist) in the gaming or related industry.
  • You have basic knowledge of PowerBI & Jupyter Notebooks.

What you will do

• Analyze customer‑specific data to generate insights that support business decisions.
• Collaborate with GameDev Consultants to deliver insights and ensure understanding of their full context.
• Present findings in clear, consistent formats (documents, dashboards, summaries).
• Identify and elevate issues related to data quality, tooling, or process inefficiencies.
• Write case studies and internal documentation to share knowledge and best practices.
• Participate in calls with clients when deeper explanation of insights is needed.
• Contribute to the standardisation of analytical outputs across the Partner Program.
• Proactively monitor and report on anomalies or inefficiencies in customer operations.
• Have eyes opened and be vocal about potential improvements.

What we offer

• Full‑time job from any place in the world with whatever type of contract suits you best (but it’s a major plus if your time zone is not too far from Europe).
• Competitive salary adjusted according to your experience and location (13 500–17 500 PLN net + VAT on a B2B contract for people based in Poland).
• A meaningful stock‑option plan to reflect your responsibilities and substantial contribution to the project.
• Days off and days for recovery – no matter the type of contract.
• A nice assortment of useful benefits – reimbursements for home office workstations and peripherals, training budgets, private healthcare subsidies, monthly hackdays to flex a different set of creative muscles.
• Remote‑first work environment – we have a headquarters in Poland but do live our work lives online, including in‑house workshops and trainings, teambuilding, and board games.
• A team of creative friends from the cross section of video games, startup development, and data analytics.
• An exciting startup project in one of the most vibrant industries in the world, in direct contact with people making amazing games.
• A cozy head office in Łódź with tons of fruits, chocolate, coffee and board games.

Team & background

IndieBI is built by an engineering‑ and analytics‑heavy team of 45+ friendly and creative people.

Our team most commonly originates from Blue Brick, a software development company Tom, one of IndieBI’s founders, set up in a previous life. The HQ is in Łódź, Poland, so of course most of the company is Polish, but we use English in Teams, meetings, documents and emails.

We’re generally working around the Polish time zone, but we are used to working with teammates distributed all over the world. Our clients are all over the place too – already spanning most of the populated time zones.

We will appreciate that you’ll be flexible and committed to the success of the team and our clients. We especially encourage marginalized groups and people from underserved backgrounds, genders, and locations to apply.

Additional information

Sounds good so far? Go ahead and apply! Or scroll down for some more context about the team, the backstory, and a few bits of FAQ. Can I get a bit more backstory, please? IndieBI is a sales intelligence platform created to help developers and video game studios know their playground a little bit better. We automatically grab data from all of the most relevant sales platforms, we normalise it, process it a little and present our users with neat interactive dashboards and advisory tools. This enables the game developers and publishers to build better intuition, evaluate their performance and ultimately lead to make better decisions. Those folks are often pretty busy doing what they really love – making video games – and we’re here to help them deal with the busy‑work of actually selling the games after they’re made.

We developed IndieBI at our video‑games studio in order to track our own game sales on every platform, and make smart decisions based on the data we gathered. Over time, we quietly shared it with other developers, and the response was overwhelmingly positive – so we’ve now raised funds, spun it out into its own company, and are scaling up aggressively. IndieBI currently has 45+ people working on data, product, analysis, and business development and we’re steadily making more full‑time hires to round out the teams.

IndieBI has helped us tremendously, and we’ve since been able to share it with over a hundred other studios, funds, and publishers – including the likes of … (list omitted for brevity).

We’ve already achieved pretty amazing things (we can tell you all about them in a meeting), but we’re ready for so much more. Now, with your help, we’ll be able to scale and build cool stuff faster, and make studios smarter across the entire games industry!
