We’re looking for people with high aptitude in critical thinking, sense of urgency, teamwork and drive while making cool games for a living!

Ready to rise-up with us? The economist's mindset Thinks in incentives: what a change makes players do, not only what it costs or earns. Reads an economy as flows: sources, sinks, inflation, and the marginal effect of each tweak.

Understands the tension between short-term revenue and long-term economy health, and can explain which one a decision favors. Leans on data, models and experiments over intuition, and writes the reasoning down.

Support week-to-week economy tuning: feature configurations, rewards, level progression, bonus values and offer contents, using data and experiments with guidance from senior teammates.

Build simulations and predictive models that forecast how content, pricing and balance changes might land before they ship. Help plan and run A/B tests on economy and pricing changes, read the results, and bring recommendations to the team. Help define player segments from behavior and motivation, and test economy parameters tailored to each segment.
