Senior Insight Analyst / Data Scientist

Mobile games Developer

Location: Central London & 2 days wfh

Salary: Dependent on experience

What’s in it for me:

1 – Small team environment – visibility and influence across the business and upwards too!

2 – Variety of work – you won’t be siloed into one work stream

3 – Strong culture of togetherness, support and friendship

4 – A great story – their journey has been full of hard work and knock backs, but now they are globally recognized and revered

Work for this aspirational independent games developer who have seen YOY growth and global domination since their inception. Driven by entrepreneurial spirit, and backed by the investment and resources of a global market leader in video gaming. The best of both worlds!

You will be joining a high performing team of data experts, who deliver a wide range of analytics and data science projects ranging from games launch marketing analysis (pre and post), to working with developers to improve in game player experience, analysing player behaviour – which does involve playing the games yourself! They also conduct ad hoc data science projects including using techniques such as NLP or building a predictive model, but the focus is largely on customer and marketing analytics. The structure is fairly flat, so you are only 3 rungs removed from the CEO, and report into the Head of Analytics. Your peers include other Senior/Lead level Data Scientists and Data Engineers – all of exceptional quality. The culture is very much like a family – close knit, highly social and there are learning opportunity every day – as no two are the same! The games are constantly being improved upon, so your job changes with the titles you are supporting at the time. It’s an ever evolving environment, meaning you’ll never get bored!

Technically they use R and Python in house, Big Query is their database tech and they have Tableau and Periscope for data visualization and dashboarding.

So if you geek out on the latest mobile game title, or simply want to diversify your experience by working in this unique industry – apply today!
