Sr. Mathematician

Qualified Sr. Mathematician candidates must have experience in:

• Creating slot machine math models and familiarity with math tools to run math simulators.
• 5+ years of C# or C++ software development (3+ year in a lead position in the gaming industry for class III and class II (preferred) games)

Ideal candidates will have experience with:

• Working within game designers to brainstorm new game ideas.
• Creatively balancing the games to provide good gameplay experiences, to create profitable and successful slots and to analyze statistically, categorize and verify the maths.
• Representing the mathematical creation and output to various testing labs.
• Researching successful slot games, features and balances.
• Draw from a wealth of knowledge in balancing previous slot machines, set out a desired profile tailored to a target market and the given features of the slot machine.
• Adjust and redefine the desired profile based upon sampling the play experience and on review of the statistical analysis of the game and in comparing the game to known successful titles.
• Create spreadsheets in Excel and assist C# developers in writing code to model slot machines mathematically.
• Maintain spreadsheets and statistical logs and facilitate easy access.
• Investigate ways of making spreadsheets and math tools to be more efficient.
• To statistically analyze, log and compare the balances of games using our math tools to better understand what makes a successful math profile for different player profile types.
• To statistically analyze the mathematical profiles of our competitors.
• Introduce new statistical methods for the creation or verification of mathematical models.

Education:

• Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics/Statistics or a related field; clear understanding of statistics and probability is a MUST.
