About the Role 

We're looking for a Senior Analytics Manager to help shape the future of our products through data-driven decision making. In this role, you'll partner closely with Product, Engineering, Design, and Leadership to uncover insights, identify opportunities, and influence strategic decisions. You'll play a key role in understanding user behavior, measuring product performance, and ensuring that product investments are backed by meaningful analysis.

This is a high-impact role for someone who enjoys solving complex business problems, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and is passionate about turning data into actionable insights that drive exceptional customer experiences and business growth.

 

Key Competencies

 

  1. Experimentation craft. Strong fundamentals in A/B testing — hypothesis framing, metric selection, power analysis, cohort-level lift analysis, and disciplined readouts. Knows the difference between statistical and practical significance and is comfortable challenging poorly designed experiments.

  2. User-level behavioral insight. Reasons about individual user journeys, not just aggregate metrics. Can identify meaningful behavioral archetypes from raw activity, distinguish correlation from causation, and connect what users do to what the product offers.

  3. Roadmap influence and opportunity sizing. Translates analysis into prioritized recommendations. Comfortable telling a PM "this won't move the metric you care about" before the work is built. Can size the financial impact of an opportunity and stack-rank it against other bets.

  4. Strong technical foundation. Expert in SQL on large datasets. Comfortable with Python for analysis and modeling. Fluent in BI tools (Tableau or equivalent). Comfortable with regression, classification, and basic ML for propensity, LTV, or churn prediction.

  5. Agentic AI fluency. Has a real point of view on AI tooling for analytics. Can prompt and orchestrate agents effectively, design human-in-the-loop workflows, and critically evaluate agent output. Treats agent output as a junior analyst's first draft — useful but always verified.

  6. Communication and executive presence. Writes for executives — leads with the answer, not the method. Can compress a complex analysis into a 3-bullet recommendation. Calibrated about uncertainty. Updates publicly when wrong.

  7. Domain judgment. Knows when to stop analyzing. Recognizes when 80% confidence with speed beats 95% confidence with delay. Pushes back on stakeholders constructively.

 
Experience

  1. 10+ years of analytics experience, with at least 5 years in product analytics, growth analytics, or a closely related function with 3 years experience in managing a Analytics team/pod

  2. Demonstrated ownership of high-impact analyses that influenced a product roadmap or strategy decision.

  3. Hands-on experience designing and measuring product experiments at scale — not just reading dashboards.

  4. Proven background in a transactional or two-sided marketplace product (gaming, fintech, e-commerce, marketplaces). Experience with payment funnels or fraud analytics is strongly preferred.

  5. Strong SQL and BI background; Python or equivalent for analysis and modeling.

  6. Bonus: hands-on experience building or deploying agent-based or AI-augmented analytics workflows.

  7. Bonus: experience in skill-based gaming, sports betting, or real-money product environments.

About this role

Skillz is seeking a Senior Analytics Manager to anchor data-driven decision-making across product, engineering, and leadership. You'd own high-impact analyses that directly shape the roadmap, diving deep into user behavior, experiment design, and opportunity sizing for a mobile eSports platform serving millions of players. This role demands someone who can move fluidly between granular user-level insights and executive-level recommendations, and who treats data rigor as non-negotiable.

The position requires 10+ years in analytics with at least 5 years focused on product or growth analytics, plus 3 years managing an analytics team. You'll need hands-on mastery of SQL and Python, fluency with BI tools like Tableau, and comfort with experimentation fundamentals—hypothesis framing, power analysis, statistical versus practical significance. Experience in transactional or two-sided marketplace products (gaming, fintech, e-commerce) is essential; payment funnels or fraud analytics background is strongly preferred. Beyond technical chops, you should have the judgment to know when 80% confidence beats perfect analysis, the communication skills to lead with answers not methods, and a grounded point of view on using AI tooling effectively in analytics workflows.

This is an in-office role based in Bengaluru, reporting into a company with significant backing and recognition in the industry. Skillz offers comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, 401K matching, equity, wellness programs, and competitive PTO—though the role itself is defined by impact and pace rather than perks.
