About the Role

We are looking for a Senior Product Analyst to help build, launch and scale an ambitious new free-to-play mobile game. The ideal candidate combines strong analytical and statistical skills with product thinking, a passion for gaming and the ability to independently drive complex analytical projects. This is a hands-on role for someone who understands games, is curious about player behavior and can translate complex data into meaningful product decisions.

You will work closely with product managers, game designers, engineers, producers and publishing teams to understand how players experience the game, identify opportunities to improve engagement, retention and monetization, optimize game systems and help shape the product from development through launch and live operations. We are looking for someone who goes beyond reporting what happened to understanding why it happened, identifying what could change and helping teams measure whether those changes worked.

You should be comfortable working with incomplete data, forming hypotheses, designing experiments and influencing product decisions with clear, actionable insights. Responsibilities Player Behavior & Product Analytics: Analyze player journeys, engagement, retention, progression, and monetization to identify friction points, behavioral patterns, and opportunities for improvement. Game Economy & Monetization: Evaluate game mechanics, level difficulty, progression systems, virtual currencies, rewards, in-app purchases, and live events to improve player experience and business outcomes.

Experimentation & Optimization: Design and evaluate A/B tests, define success and guardrail metrics, apply appropriate statistical methods, and recommend whether to launch, iterate, or discontinue features. Go-To-Market Analytics: Define success metrics for playtests, early access, soft launches, and global launches. Analyze early player behavior, onboarding, retention, progression, and monetization to identify issues, assess launch readiness, and guide product iteration.

Metrics & Analytics Infrastructure: Define product KPIs, establish telemetry requirements, validate event instrumentation, and build reusable datasets, dashboards, and analytical frameworks for reliable product monitoring. Advanced Analytics: Apply exploratory data analysis, statistical modeling, forecasting, and simulation to investigate hypotheses and estimate the potential impact of product changes. Live Operations & Growth: Evaluate events, content updates, promotions, and new features to understand their impact on engagement, retention, and monetization.

Product Decision Support: Independently lead analytical investigations, identify root causes, challenge assumptions, and translate complex findings into clear recommendations for product and game design teams. Stakeholder Collaboration: Partner with cross-functional teams to prioritize analytical opportunities, influence product decisions, and measure the impact of implemented changes.
