Game Data Analyst — Social-Casino / Mobile Games

What are you working on?

• The name of the project(s): New Social-Casino IP (title undisclosed), Sweepstakes-Model Slots/Poker Title (US market, unannounced)
• At what stage of the project(s)? New internal studio being built from the ground up
• Genres: Casino, Casual
• Platforms: Mobile, Social, iOS, Android

Our Client

Our client is an established, global mobile-games and utility-apps publisher with more than a decade in the market. One of their self-developed titles has passed 10M+ downloads on Google Play and racked up 56K+ App Store ratings, holding a 4.8-star average across both platforms. Building on that track record, they're now expanding into the overseas Social-Casino / Sweepstakes genre — slots and casino-style social games built around a compliant, coupon-based rewards model for the US market — and are standing up new, largely autonomous studios across several regions to support that push.

Why This Role Exists

This is a newly created role, tied directly to the company's expansion into overseas Social-Casino / Sweepstakes games. Rather than bolting data support onto an existing team, they're building a dedicated, full-stack studio — design, engineering, art, operations, and data — for this new business line, and this hire is the analytics seat, reporting to the studio's Game Producer.

Team size and structure?

Small, newly formed team: design, engineering, art, operations, and data — full functional build-out around this hire from day one.

For which tasks (responsibilities)?

• Deep-Dive Analysis: Analyze large, complex user and game datasets to surface insights the team can act on.

• Actionable Recommendations: Turn game-economy, gameplay, operations, and marketing/LiveOps-event data into concrete recommendations — not just reports.

• Dashboards & Reporting: Build and continuously improve dashboards so the wider team has a shared, current view of key metrics.

• KPI Development: Define and track the KPIs that matter for this business, and keep other teams aligned on what the numbers say.

• A/B Testing: Design, run, and report on A/B tests aimed at improving revenue and player experience, informing new feature launches.

• Tooling: Help select and implement the analytics tools and practices this growing team will run on.

What kind of professional are we looking for?

• 3+ years analyzing large, complex datasets, with hands-on experience on live game projects.

• Background in casual / social-casino mobile games built for tier-1 markets, preferably the US — F2P or social-casino analytics specifically (competitive analysis, experimentation, fraud/risk-control, or forecasting all count).

• Real understanding of the Social-Casino business — someone who turns data into decisions, not just raw report extracts.

• Comfortable working within a compliant, non-gambling Sweepstakes-model framework (top-ups, redemption, and cash rewards) built for the U.S. market, spanning slot machines and Texas Hold'em-style games.

• Able to connect analysis to business outcomes — retention, monetization, and LTV — and flag risks tied to economic inflation, gameplay, and compliance.

• Strong hands-on skills in SQL, Excel, and ETL.

• Able to run a complete A/B-testing closed loop, from design through implementation.

• Background at a recognized social-casino or slots-style mobile game studio.

• Bachelor's degree or above in Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Industrial Engineering, Statistics, Economics, or a related quantitative field.

• Fluent English.

Nice to Have

• Experience specifically in Social-Casino or Sweepstakes-style games — familiarity with dual-currency economies, player segmentation, LTV, retention, and monetization analysis.

Why do we enjoy working here?

• Compensation: Fixed salary + performance bonus.

• Setup: You'll join a newly formed, largely independent studio for this business line, working alongside a full functional team (design, engineering, art, operations, data) and reporting to the studio's Game Producer. Local studios run with real autonomy rather than as a satellite of a central office.

• Hours: European working hours.

Location

Remote, home-based.

What are the conditions and bonuses?
