Requirements
  • Extensive experience (typically 4+ years) in a data science or advanced analytics role, with a strong focus on business performance, user behavior, and growth metrics.
Responsibilities
  • Model and Predict User Value: Lead the development of predictive models, particularly for Customer Lifetime Value (CLTV), to identify high-value user segments and drive strategic optimization for marketing and product teams.
  • Design & Analyze Experiments: Take ownership of the design and analysis of hundreds of A/B tests and observational causal methods to deeply understand user behavior and measure the impact of various strategies across user acquisition, rewards, and in-game tasks.
  • Drive Strategic Decisions: Partner closely with business leaders, including the CEO and marketing managers, to frame complex business challenges as data problems, translate findings into clear narratives, and influence strategic decision-making.
  • Holistic Problem-Solving: Engage in a wide range of projects, from improving attribution models and fraud prevention to providing data-driven recommendations for product features and game recommendations.
  • Deep-Dive Analysis: Utilize exceptional SQL and Python skills to conduct sophisticated data analysis, build robust analytical models, and maintain data structures that support advanced insights and experimentation.

Almedia provides an Engagement Engine that helps mobile game developers and app publishers acquire high-quality users through rewarded actions. The platform uses AI and machine learning to analyze data in real time, optimize ROAS, and charge advertisers only when users complete high-value objectives, with automated fraud prevention and first-party data from owned platforms like FreeCash. Unlike many adtech rivals, Almedia is bootstrapped and relies on transparent data exchange and long-term player value rather than capital-driven growth. Its goal is to deliver scalable, performance-based user acquisition for B2B clients across mobile gaming and fintech in major markets while maintaining privacy compliance.
