Job description

We’re looking to welcome a Head of Data to our team!!

5 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

FULL TIME

PAPHOS / TBILISI / REMOTE

We're looking for a Head of Data with a strong product mindset. You're curious about the product, you like to explore the data on your own, and you bring insights to the table before anyone asks for them. You understand the game as well as our designers and producers do. You enjoy spotting patterns, anomalies and growth opportunities early, and turning them into decisions that shape the product. You'll lead a strong, established data team and help shape where it goes next, with a growing focus on product strategy and discovery.

If you've ever stayed up digging into why D7 dipped for one cohort in Brazil just because you wanted to know, we'd love to talk.

What you’ll do:

• Stay ahead of the curve. Keep a close eye on core metrics (retention, monetization, LTV, funnels, game economy) and surface trends and anomalies early.
• Connect insights to action. Go beyond the "what" to the "why" and "what next," with clear hypotheses and recommendations for the team.
• Partner with producers and product leads. Help prioritize features, propose experiments, size their potential before launch and evaluate their impact after.
• Lead and grow the data team. Set direction and priorities, mentor the team, and build on its strengths as it takes on a bigger role in product discovery.
• Own the data function end to end. That includes the analytics infrastructure, tracking, data quality and the A/B testing framework.
• Make data accessible. Help everyone in the company get answers quickly, so the team can focus on high-impact work.

What we’re looking for:

• 5+ years in product analytics or data, including 2+ years leading a team.
• Experience in gaming or large-scale B2C products with free-to-play / freemium monetization.
• Strong product intuition. You understand core loops, meta, economy and LiveOps, and you're a true thought partner to producers.
• Strong SQL and Python, plus hands-on experience with DWH and BI tools [add your stack].
• Solid grounding in statistics and experiment design, with an eye for reading results rigorously.
• A natural sense of ownership and initiative: you enjoy shaping the questions, not just answering them.
• The ability to explain complex things simply and guide an insight all the way to a decision.
• Strong usage of modern AI instruments.
• Nice to have: Experience with sports or competitive games.
• Experience growing a data team's role in product strategy and discovery.
• Experience with ML for LTV prediction, churn modeling or personalization.
• You play games yourself and have a feel for what keeps players engaged.

Why choose us?

Our team unites creative professionals who have great effort to develop a top-quality project for gaming consoles, PC and mobile. If you possess experience in game development or are just a gamer to the core, you are welcome to be a part of our international team, where your skills and creativity will be boosted, and the possibility for growth will always be in the game!
