Analyze live data, playtests, and updates to evaluate impact and propose adjustments

Strong mathematical and analytical skills
Hands-on experience designing and balancing game economies for mobile games
Experience with mid-core, hybrid casual, idle, tycoon, or related genres (not necessarily all of them)
Ability to work with analytics data: interpret metrics and derive actionable insights
Confident proficiency in Excel or Google Sheets, including formulas, dependencies, progression curves, and modeling
Experience analyzing and forecasting mid- and late-game economies
Strong information structuring skills; ability to interpret product metrics and analytics results
Solid understanding of monetization principles and their impact on the game economy
Ability to prepare clear, well-structured technical specifications for development teams
