The posting

About the Role

The VP, Analytics owns Skillz Platform analytics across SDK and Arena, consolidating people currently split across separate reporting lines into a single function accountable for measurement integrity, experiment quality and decision velocity. The function is organizationally independent of every function it scores — including Product, Growth and Strategy.

Responsibilities

  • Own Skillz Platform analytics across SDK and Arena, leading roughly ten people across four sub-functions with four direct reports.
  • Establish and govern a single source of truth: the metric dictionary, the Snowflake semantic-layer contract, definitional change control, and reconciliation between the network P&L and venue scorecards.
  • Specify and land the lifecycle marker that install-to-second-payment, install-to-stable and CAC-to-stable all depend on.
  • Establish holdout-based incrementality as the default standard for campaigns, promos, incentives and channel spend, and refuse reads that do not have one.
  • Serve as the independent scoring authority for the economy — cash, Z, Ticketz and matchmaking — against the guardrail bands set by VP Strategy.
  • Ensure every stage of the profit-driver chain and both product surfaces have a named analytics owner, a live baseline and a defined cadence.
  • Build and lead the Competitive & Market Intelligence function, giving leadership an external benchmark for every internal target.
  • Partner as a peer with Product, Growth, Engineering, Data Engineering, Player Trust and FP&A; represent analytics in quarterly planning and the weekly leadership ritual.
  • Hire, develop and retain the analytics bench; build a leadership layer and remove key-man risk on integrity and reconciliation.

Key Competencies

  • Measurement rigor under commercial pressure — can hold a defensible number when a senior stakeholder wants a different one, and knows the difference between a directional read and a causal one.
  • Org design and economic thinking — structures analytics around the business's economic model rather than around features or requesters; has consolidated fragmented analytics functions before.
  • Experimentation and causal-inference depth — holdout design, incrementality, cannibalization testing, and the judgment to know when a clean experiment is not worth the cost.
  • Independence without isolation — scores the functions they partner with, and keeps the partnership intact while doing it.
  • Executive communication — translates measurement into decisions for an SLT audience without oversimplifying or hiding behind method.
  • Player-economy intuition — reasons fluently about deposits, wallets, incentive burn, tier migration, LTV and matchmaking fairness.

Experience

  • 14+ years in analytics or data science with 6+ years leading multi-team organizations, including managers reporting in.
  • Owned analytics for a consumer product with a real-money, wallet or transactional economy — real-money gaming, fintech, marketplaces or online gambling strongly preferred.
  • Consolidated multiple analytics or BI functions into a single org, and built and governed a semantic or metric layer at scale (Snowflake or equivalent) with company-wide adoption.
  • Ran a mature experimentation programme including holdout and incrementality methodology, with demonstrable influence on monetization or acquisition decisions.
  • Operated as a credible peer to Product, Growth and Engineering leadership across multiple product lines; comfortable with ambiguity and with organizations mid-restructure.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
