Madbox is a fast-growing mobile gaming company with a very unique way of developing games. Everything has been designed so teams can take as much ownership as possible, unleash their creativity, see their games reach millions of players, and have fun on the way. Casual people, Mad ambition!

Our Analytics team covers the full spectrum: a live game generating real revenue, several titles in active development, and a Data Core team building the infrastructure that powers everything. You won't be working in a silo, you'll be joining a connected team where what you build on Pocket Champs shapes how we think about analytics across the whole company.

As Lead Data Analyst on Pocket Champs, you will be the senior analytical voice on our core game, defining what healthy looks like, challenging investment decisions with data, and setting the standard for how the analytics team thinks and operates. This role sits at the intersection of the game team: designers, PMs, and Live Ops, and the full technical backbone of Madbox: Data Core, Central Game Tech building cross-game functionalities, Web Tech developing new tools, and an AI team making everything smarter. You'll coordinate across all of them.

Your future responsibilities and scope:

- Be the central analytics voice on Pocket Champs, define what healthy looks like, challenge investment decisions with data, and set the analytical direction for the game

- Elevate the bar for the team, set methodology standards, challenge analytical approaches, and mentor analysts on quality, rigor, and communication

- Own the A/B test framework end to end: design, evaluation methodology, and standards for how results are interpreted and acted on





- Translate business questions into data model requirements and coordinate with the Data Core team to build the layers that power analytical work across the game

- Proactively surface insights for the product team, not just answering questions, but identifying what questions should be asked

- Set and own the standards for how analytical findings reach designers, PMs, and Live Ops: format, cadence, and whether it actually influenced decisions

The profile we are looking for:

- 5+ years in mobile gaming analytics, worked on live games across the full release cycle, with direct experience in retention and monetization mechanics influencing outcomes

- Strong statistical foundations: designed and evaluated A/B tests end to end, and knows what to do when conditions aren't clean

- Track record of building KPI frameworks from first principles, defining what matters for the specific game and context rather than defaulting to industry convention

- Evidence-first: forms strong positions from data, defends them under pressure, but stays open to changing course when the evidence calls for it, the goal is to be correct, not just right.

- Able to translate complex data into clear, actionable insights for both technical and non-technical audiences

- Expert proficiency in SQL and either R or Python for data exploration and analysis

- High autonomy, low maintenance: figures things out quickly, meticulous about what matters, moves with pragmatism and proactivity

Nice to have:

- Experience scaling games on revenue across different game types





- Familiarity with Bayesian methods

- Experience designing data models and metric layers, not just consuming dashboards, and the ability to communicate those designs clearly to a technical data team

- Experience defining and evaluating how analytical findings reach non-technical stakeholders, setting standards for format, depth, and cadence

- Experience working with Looker & LookML
