Rockstar Games is seeking a skilled Data Design Analyst passionate about video games and data design to join their unique game development studio in London. This role is integral to the Analytics team, partnering with game development and data science to design reliable and interpretable telemetry that supports decision-making across the organization.

Responsibilities

  • Partner with game development, analytics engineering, and data science stakeholders to understand gameplay systems, product questions, and downstream data needs.
  • Design clear, consistent, and scalable telemetry specifications that capture player behaviour and game systems accurately while supporting efficient data model pipeline consumption.
  • Translate analytical requirements into raw telemetry event designs, schemas, naming conventions, validation rules, and documentation.
  • Review proposed telemetry designs for completeness, quality, consistency, and suitability for downstream modelling, reporting, experimentation, and machine learning use cases.
  • Collaborate with analytics engineers to ensure telemetry is structured to reduce transformation complexity and improve reliability of curated data products.
  • Support the Data Integrity & Operations team’s telemetry QA by defining expected behaviours, edge cases, acceptance criteria, and validation checks for new or updated game instrumentation.
  • Maintain documentation and design standards that improve discoverability, governance, and consistency across game telemetry.
  • Contribute to best practices for event taxonomy, schema design, metadata capture, and lifecycle management of telemetry definitions.

Requirements

  • 5+ years experience in analytics, data design, data analysis, product analytics, game analytics, or a related data-focused role.
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in a quantitative, technical, analytical, or design-oriented field.
  • Strong understanding of event-based data, data schemas, data quality principles, and how raw telemetry supports downstream analytics and data modelling.
  • Ability to translate ambiguous stakeholder questions into structured data requirements and practical telemetry designs.
  • Familiarity with SQL and working with large-scale datasets to investigate, validate, or interpret behavioural data.
  • Excellent written communication skills, with the ability to create clear specifications, documentation, and guidance for both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to reason through edge cases, data lineage, implementation constraints, and downstream usage patterns.
