What your days will look like:

• You will be a part of a game team and support its operations by bringing objective and eye-opening findings to spark discussion and initiate improvements across various game areas, from level design to liveops events;
• You will conduct your own exploratory analysis, run frequent A/B tests and suggest your own analytics methods to bring new perspectives to the team;
• You might help level designers by creating new metrics to improve our core experience, build dashboards that are used every day by product managers to track live-ops performance or create easy to digest visualisations that help out game designers understand something new about player behaviour;
• You will get tasked with building apps that help simulate game economy or pipelines that make it easier to access complex data;
• You are eager to learn new things and support the knowledge sharing culture in the team. We have a particularly diverse data craft, so you’ll have no problem finding interesting people to bounce around ideas with.

Who we think will do great in this role has:

• You have good experience in SQL and some experience in R or Python;
• You know how to build dashboards, run and analyse A/B tests;
• You have a good understanding of aspects that can make games or apps more fun to use and always try to tie this to business results;
• You are at ease communicating your findings to audiences with diverse backgrounds and you are willing to bring to the table your own ideas and proposals to product managers and other stakeholders.

Data is at the heart of everything we do at Rovio. It enables us to continually improve our games and provide incredible experiences for the millions of users who play our games every day. All of this data is only valuable if it can be used to guide our day to day operations. It is the job of Rovio data craft to turn that raw data into actionable insights for Rovio’s games teams and other business units.
