Job description

We’re looking for an Analytics Lead who can bring structure, reliability, and scalability to how we work with data. You’ll work across multiple departments, improve our analytics infrastructure, and help build systems that support smarter decisions every day. If your instinct isn’t “we should just use Tableau/Power BI,” this is probably the role for you

YOUR QUEST-LINE:

• Own the day-to-day operations of our internal analytics platform;
• Manage small analytics team: run regular 1:1s, performance reviews, distribute tasks based on priorities, and help the team navigate cross-team collaboration smoothly;
• Stay hands-on with data engineering: review pipelines, drive adoption of incremental data refresh, and push toward near-real-time updates for our key tables;
• Design and maintain a data architecture that balances speed and depth: fast, aggregated reporting alongside detailed, granular data for deeper analysis;
• Drive product analytics: user segmentation, retention/engagement patterns, and push hypothesis-driven research instead of purely status-check dashboards;
• Grow our AI-powered analytics platform, from automated reporting to a future conversational data interface;
• Collaborate with the product, development, finance, anti-fraud, support, and marketing teams to ensure their dashboards remain up-to-date and their decisions are data-driven.

YOUR IN-GAME SKIN:

• 5+ years of experience in analytics roles within product tech companies;
• 2+ years of experience managing an analytics team while staying hands-on;
• Strong SQL and solid Python, enough to read and write pipeline logic;
• Real understanding of data engineering fundamentals (ETL/ELT, BigQuery, bronze/silver/gold layering);
• Genuine enthusiasm and hands-on experience with AI-assisted workflows;
• Comfortable working autonomously, turning loose business goals into a concrete backlog of boards, metrics, and experiments;
• Understanding of analytics infrastructure, event tracking, and data consistency principles;
• Experience partnering closely with engineering and product teams on analytics implementation;
• Ability to structure ambiguous requests into clear analytical solutions and priorities;
• Strong communication skills and ability to work cross-functionally with different departments;
• At least an intermediate level of English.

WILL BE YOUR BOOST:

• Familiarity with the Steam trading ecosystem or skins markets (CS2, Dota2, Rust);
• Domain experience in high-load e-commerce, Fintech, or iGaming projects.

YOUR POWER-UPS SOURCE:

• Spontaneous weekend from the CEO;
• Support for professional development, including events (we went on a MAJOR trip to Copenhagen, for example), certifications, and educational materials;
• Start working at a time that’s comfortable for you;
• People Partner who will always support you in word and deed;
• Anniversary and performance bonuses;
• Input on project direction in a bureaucracy-free environment;
• Regular performance reviews and personal feedback sessions;
• 20 paid vacation days and 7 sick leave days;
• Assisting with the accounting and tax management for individual entrepreneurs;
• English language and Well-being benefit — so that you can improve your mental health the way you want;
• No time tracking;
• We purchase CHARGING STATIONS for our spacers;
• We help Ukraine: every month the company supports AFU and transfers donations for ammunition and supplies.

If you read everything carefully and exclaimed: “Oh, yeah, I’m good at everything and I want to do cool things together!”, then we are already looking forward to your resume!
