Our Story


At Wooga, we are very proud of the diverse, creative and friendly environment we have established and we believe you will enjoy working with some of the best people in the industry. Each of our Woogas plays an important role in our success as a company and in shaping our culture. We really value our razor-sharp focus on story-driven casual games, excellent craftsmanship, and the truly collaborative way of working. We create joyful experiences that awaken our players’ desire to see what happens next. Based in the heart of Berlin, with over 280 employees from around the world, we work together to create high-quality casual games with engaging stories at the core of the experience.

At Wooga, our Data Scientists play an instrumental role in driving the successful development of our games. The Data Science team explores new methodologies and delves deep into every aspect of our data to identify opportunities and make a real impact on our business. We are looking for a data enthusiast, who is passionate about games and is excited to think analytically about what makes a game great!


  • You will work on analytics projects involving multiple team members to understand, segment, predict and influence the behavior of our players across our games portfolio
  • You will use experiments, advanced analytics and machine learning to find levers for product optimization
  • You will contribute to building data products for our game teams, empowering them to deliver actionable insights and recommendations
  • You will proactively drive improvements of and provide education on our data analytics tools
  • You will get involved with our products across different teams to ensure our games are loved by more and more people, every day

About you


  • You have a degree in a highly quantitative field (e.g.statistics, economics, research, computer science)
  • You have professional working experience in data science and business analytics
  • You are proficient in using Python for data analysis, and you can use SQL effectively to query large volumes of data
  • You have a solid understanding of how data science can impact the core business and of economics in a freemium business model
  • You have an understanding of commonly applied advanced statistical and machine learning techniques, and can generate ideas on how you could apply these to improve our games
  • You have worked in the games industry previously or are familiar with video games yourself.

Please note: Research has shown that some under-represented groups in the gaming industry (eg: women) tend to apply only if they meet every single requirement. Here at Wooga, the desire to learn and the willingness to solve problems are more important to us than your experience on paper. We encourage you to apply even if you do not think that you tick all the boxes - thinking outside of such boxes and embracing the diversity of mindsets and backgrounds is what we believe makes our teams thrive.
