Senior Data Engineer, Player Care

You know the feeling when you’ve beaten your personal high score? Working in Analytics at Supercell is like having those moments everyday. And better yet, making the best gameplay decision is a perfect blend of intuition and data.

As a Data Engineer, you’ll be leveling up our Player Care operations. Actionable data is an integral part of providing better experience to our players and enabling both our Player Support and Trust & Safety teams to be effective and data driven. We are working towards being hypothesis driven and for that - we need your skills to help us build our data and tooling to be ready to continuously improve our service.

Picture yourself leveling up our tooling to legendary status of the highest of echelons. Rock solid and modern, others would say. Continuously raising the bar is your choice of approach.

You won’t be playing a follow-the-script type of a game with us. See, you are the forward-thinking, data-loving problem solver type who is seasoned to spot opportunities even when they're in stealth mode.

You’ll be joining a company where thoughtfulness, quality and focus are kept in high regard. We are passionate about not compromising on quality and choosing a long term approach to make Supercell a truly global games company that will last for many decades to come.
