You will work closely with Game Designers, Developers, and other stakeholders to bring innovative games to market while maintaining an in-depth focus on probability, randomness, and balance.

Key Responsibilities:
Game Mathematics and Modelling:
  • Design and develop the mathematical models for various casino games (slots, table games, and other RNG-based games).
  • Calculate and verify payout percentages, Return to Player (RTP) rates, hit frequencies, and volatility indexes for games.
  • Ensure mathematical models meet the balance requirements between game enjoyment and profitability.
Game Simulation:
  • Run extensive simulations to verify game mechanics, validate results, and troubleshoot any issues.
  • Adjust models and configurations based on simulation results and game design needs.
Collaboration with Game Design and Development Teams:
  • Collaborate with game designers to ensure mathematical models align with design and player engagement goals.
  • Support software engineers in the implementation of mathematical models within the game engine.
  • Provide data and insights to assist in the development of new game ideas and innovations.
Documentation and Compliance:
  • Document mathematical models, formulas, and assumptions used in game development.
  • Prepare detailed reports for internal reviews and external regulatory submissions.
  • Ensure games comply with industry regulations and licensing requirements.
Optimization and Innovation:
  • Continuously monitor and optimize the mathematical elements of games to ensure player engagement and profitability.
  • Research and experiment with innovative mathematical concepts to develop new game mechanics and player experiences.
