We're looking for someone who already uses agentic workflows as a core part of how they work: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, custom agents, MCP servers, skills, planning loops, review gates, and AI-assisted engineering. Someone with strong opinions on which AI workflows hold up in production and which fall apart when real decisions depend on the numbers.\nYou'll bring that practice to the AI-native analytics ecosystem of a brand-new mobile game. You'll define how gameplay, monetization, attribution, and player behavior data are collected, structured, and transformed into trustworthy insights, automated reporting, and AI-powered analytics tools.\nYou will work at the intersection of AI, analytics, and game development, building the data foundation of a new game from scratch. You'll define its technical direction and drive the evolution of its analytics and AI capabilities from concept to production.\nUnlike a traditional analytics role, you'll use agents to dramatically increase your throughput while remaining the architect, reviewer, and final owner of correctness. The agents generate volume; you provide judgement.\nYOUR MISSION\nBuild the Data Foundation\nDesign and operate the end-to-end gameplay analytics ecosystem.\n\nDefine tracking, storage, processing, and reporting architecture.\n\nOwn data correctness and make judgement calls when quality checks flag anomalies.\n\nDrive AI-Native Analytics\nBuild the semantic layer that translates raw gameplay data into validated gameplay and business concepts.\n\nDevelop AI-driven automated reporting, dashboards, and insight-generation workflows.\n\nEvaluate and implement AI tools, agents, and workflows that improve analytics speed, reliability, and depth.\n\nReview AI-generated code and analytics on critical paths before they reach production.\n\nGenerate Product Intelligence\nIdentify opportunities, risks, anomalies, and trends across gameplay and player behavior.\n\nSupport product, balancing, design, and leadership teams with data-driven recommendations.\n\nTranslate complex datasets into clear, actionable insights.\n\nSet the Agentic Bar\nHelp define how the wider engineering organization adopts agentic practices.\n\nEstablish standards for tooling, review processes, quality gates, and what \"done\" means when agents generate most of the implementation.\n\nYOUR BACKSTORY\nSeveral years of experience building analytics or data-driven systems in production environments, ideally in gaming or mobile.\n\nDeep comfort with LLMs, agents, and AI-assisted engineering workflows in production environments.\n\nHands-on experience using agentic workflows and AI coding tools in real-world projects.\n\nThe ability to discuss concretely how you:\nstructure prompts and context,\n\nmanage autonomous and multi-agent workflows, including when to intervene,\n\nuse MCP servers, custom tools, skills, or subagents,\n\nreview AI-generated code and queries without becoming a bottleneck.\n\nStrong experience working with behavioral, transactional, or event-based datasets and deriving actionable insights from complex data.\n\nStrong Python and SQL skills. You read and own code you did not write and verify outputs independently rather than blindly trusting generated results.\n\nExperience designing scalable data architectures, pipelines, data models, dashboards, analytical frameworks, or automated insight-generation systems.\n\nFamiliarity with cloud-based data platforms and storage.\n\nStrong analytical decomposition skills and the ability to translate ambiguous business questions into precise analytical problems.\n\nStrong instinct for data quality, system reliability, and independent verification. You don't simply accept whatever the agent produces.\n\nComfortable operating independently, driving technical initiatives from concept to production, and owning outcomes rather than tasks.\n\nExcellent English communication skills.\n\nPassion for gaming.\n\nNICE TO HAVE\nGaming or mobile analytics experience (monetization, attribution, retention, LiveOps, economy).\n\nEvent-driven and streaming data architectures.\n\nReal-time telemetry or anti-cheat / anomaly-detection systems.\n\nPublished or shared work on agentic workflows - blog posts, OSS subagents/skills, internal tooling you've open-sourced.\n\nHOW WE INTERVIEW\nExpect to walk us through an agentic workflow you've actually built and used - the specs and context you feed it, how you structure the loop, where it breaks, how you catch it, and what you'd never let an agent do unsupervised on data people make decisions from. Bring screen-shares, repos, prompts, whatever shows the real thing. We're more interested in your judgement and battle scars than in polished slides.\nAbout Goodgame Studios\nGoodgame Studios is known for data-driven game development and successful live-service strategy titles.
