  • translate model outputs into clear recommendations on where and when to invest, explaining expected outcomes, uncertainty, and key assumptions to marketing and finance partners.
  • partner with User Acquisition, Ads, Finance, and Analytics Engineering teams to turn reliable data science into tools and workflows that support recurring marketing decisions

What We're Looking For

  • preferred experience in applying marketing modeling techniques e.g., media mix modeling, time series forecasting, segmentation/clustering
  • advanced SQL and hands-on Python skills for working with large datasets, developing analyses, and building reliable, scalable models; exposure to Google Cloud Platform and BigQuery is a plus
  • working knowledge of visualization tools: Looker (Preferred), QlikView, Tableau, or PowerBI
  • proficiency in developing and operating production data science workflows, including orchestration with tools such as Airflow and containerization with Docker; cloud deployment, CI/CD, and monitoring experience is a plus
  • strong communication skills and the ability to explain clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, influencing decision-making through structured storytelling and data-evidence-based recommendations
  • Bachelor’s degree in a quantitative or scientific field, or equivalent practical experience, is a big plus
  • experience in the games industry, or interest in video/mobile games and the evolving in-game advertising field, is a plus but not required

At Scopely, we create games for everyone - and want to ensure that the people behind our games reflect that!
