- Serve as the primary stakeholder interface, managing expectations and ensuring seamless delivery of high-impact analytical projects.
- Partner with Data Science and Data Engineering leaders to define and implement scalable analytics frameworks and technical foundations to support holistic measurement, ROAS optimization, and data-driven decision-making at all levels.
- Oversee the design and delivery of key gaming and publishing dashboards and reports, providing senior stakeholders with timely insights to guide strategy and investment decisions.
- Collaborate with the larger Data org to ensure robust data infrastructure and governance, including tracking plans, pipelines, and source integration (e.g., MMPs, ad platforms, app stores).
- Stay ahead of industry trends and emerging technologies, continuously identifying opportunities to improve analytical methodologies, tools, and frameworks.

- Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence and negotiate across all levels of the organization.
- Strong project management, prioritization, and operational excellence skills; comfortable navigating ambiguity, managing complex dependencies, and overseeing multiple workstreams.
- Proven track record of building and scaling analytics functions that directly impact business growth and performance.
- Familiar with data modeling, SQL, and BI tools (e.g., Looker), with the ability to guide technical teams, but without needing daily hands-on expertise.
- Demonstrated ability to design and lead A/B tests and interpret results to optimize performance.
- Experience managing and supporting analysts and building a high-performance, data-driven team culture.
- Passion for gaming and a deep understanding of how analytics can drive player acquisition, engagement, and retention.
