At Hutch, we aim to make the best mobile racing games in the world. When we launch a game, that’s just the start: we use player feedback and most critically data to figure out how to make each game the best it can be. There are so many opportunities to identify insights in our data that we can’t keep up - and that’s where you come in.

As a Games Analyst, you’ll primarily be figuring out what our player data means and what we should do about it. You’ll be reporting on recent game performance, assessing the impact of new features – or new bugs - and contributing ideas for how to further improve the game.

Hutch believes in empowering and trusting our teams. We welcome ideas for our games from all parts of the business, and applicants from all backgrounds.

Requirements

Some examples of the work you will be involved in:

Designing and analysing control-based experiments on in-game parameters
Analysing player data to identify problem areas or missed opportunities
Working with game designers and engineers to solve design problems
Building models to estimate performance where tracking is either missing or not possible

Desired Skills & Experience

Essential.

You’re deeply comfortable with numbers. Your instinctive approach to any problem is to quantify it first. You always notice when news reports fail to contextualise numbers
You’ve got a relevant degree, or up to 2 years of experience in an analytical role.

Desirable. Two is fine. None are essential

Curious – driven to discover underlying explanations of things, just for fun
Excel mastery – ever used multi-line formulae, or automated a data import/export? Great!
Perhaps you play games, and have ideas about what makes something fun
You might enjoy communicating your findings with great data visualisations
Experience in statistics, modelling, or other such generally useful techniques, is useful
You’ve played a game by Hutch and have some good ideas on how to improve it!
