Job Details

Avalanche Studios Group is seeking a Player Insights Manager to lead player insights efforts for our live games, with a strong focus on engaging our amazing community through surveys. In addition to driving insights, you will also coordinate external playtests and user research projects to ensure player feedback directly shapes game development and player engagement.

As part of the Data and Insight team, you will play a vital role in gathering and analyzing player feedback through surveys and other research methods. You’ll work closely with game development teams, marketing, and third-party research vendors to deliver actionable insights that enhance player experiences and guide strategic decisions.

What you'll do

    • Lead player insights efforts for live games, using surveys to engage and understand our dedicated community, tracking player behavior and sentiment.
    • Own and drive larger-scale research projects, such as annual player surveys and ongoing motivational player segmentation, to inform strategic planning.
    • Coordinate external playtests and user research projects by collaborating with third-party vendors to ensure smooth execution.
    • Collaborate with internal teams (UX, game design, marketing, data analysts) to identify research needs and align on goals.
    • Analyze survey data and other qualitative and quantitative feedback to provide actionable insights that influence game development and player engagement strategies.
    • Share key findings with stakeholders to drive decisions and optimize the player experience.

Who you are

    • 5+ years of experience in player insights within the gaming industry.
    • Experience in working with player segmentation to identify and cater to diverse player needs and behaviors.
    • Understanding of user research methods, particularly designing and analyzing surveys to gather player feedback.
    • Proven experience coordinating external research projects and working with third-party research vendors.
    • Strong organizational and project management skills, with the ability to handle multiple research projects simultaneously.
    • Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to present findings effectively to non-research stakeholders.
    • Passion for gaming, with a strong understanding of player behaviors and industry trends.
    • Excellent written and spoken English communication skills.
Note: Research shows under-represented groups in the industry (especially women) might not apply to a job if they don’t check off every requirement. At Avalanche, we’re more about your drive to learn and interest in tackling challenges than what’s on your resume! So don’t stress if you don’t tick every box— shoot us your application anyway! Diverse opinions and different experiences are what make our teams so great, not itemized lists of qualifications.

The Stockholm location
Our Stockholm office is situated in Södermalm, the beating heart of the city’s game industry. It’s a physical representation of our games – the lush vegetation of Just Cause and theHunter: Call of the Wild meets corroded metal straight out of Mad Max. It has everything you need to make it your creative base camp.

At Avalanche Studios Group, we create worlds beyond limits. But that’s not exclusive to our games, so we’re committed to developing a diverse and inclusive workplace. All Avalanchers have a shared responsibility to create an open work environment where everyone is treated equally and respectfully.
