Evoplay is one of the leading iGaming providers, recognized for its innovative approach to game development and technological solutions.
Our mission is to surprise not only the iGaming market but the entire entertainment industry with our interesting and unique products. Our game portfolio of 200+ titles, where each is a unique and exciting story, is presented all over the world, including Europe, Latin America, Asia, and the CIS. The key to this success is the teamwork of like-minded people who are passionate about a common goal and love games. Evoplay is the first to introduce a 3D/VR gambling game at ICE 2018, and created Dungeon: Immortal Evil — the first 3D RPG-inspired hack and slash video slot in 2020. We have received numerous nominations at prestigious iGaming awards ceremonies (EGR’s Awards, CasinoBeats, SBC Awards, etc.)
We’re looking for someone who  lives and breathes insights  — a research specialist who knows when to run a survey and when to tear a hypothesis apart with data.
You can design a mixed-method pipeline that transforms information into clarity and impact.
This role sits at the crossroads of  UI/UX research ,  user behavior analysis , and  market & competitive intelligence .
You’ll help us uncover  why players click ,  how markets shift , and  which mechanics or design patterns drive long-term retention and engagement  — what’s trending today and what will shape the industry tomorrow.

• Translate research findings into clear, actionable recommendations that influence stakeholders across  Product ,  Marketing , and  NPD .

• Conduct  market and competitor research  to identify opportunities, risks, and content gaps — particularly within the iGaming sector.

• Plan and execute  user testing sessions  (playtests, usability studies, concept validation, prototype evaluations).

• Use data and analytics tools (e.g., Power BI, Google Analytics, etc.) to synthesize qualitative insights with quantitative metrics and drive business decisions.

• Generate strategic insights that inform high-impact publishing decisions, from positioning to regional investment and GTM strategies.

Requirements:


• 3–4+ years of experience conducting research across methodologies (UX, ethnographic, quantitative, behavioral).

• Proven track record of impactful research in  gaming, iGaming, or entertainment industries .

• Passion for  games, human behavior, and design  — understanding what makes players tick.

• Strong expertise in both  quantitative  and  qualitative  methods (interviews, focus groups, surveys, playtesting).

• Hands-on experience with  competitor  and  market analysis .

• Ability to translate research insights into clear, business-driven decisions.

• Proactive mindset: identify research opportunities aligned with key business objectives.

• Strong understanding of  cross-cultural differences  and  regional market trends  across LATAM, EU, and Asia.

• Comfortable working independently in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.

• Impact-driven, with a balance between research rigor and iterative collaboration.

• Strong knowledge of research tools and hands-on experience conducting studies with them ( Maze, Hotjar, UserTesting, PlaytestCloud , or similar).

• Understanding of  player psychology ,  engagement loops , and  UX design systems .

• Natural curiosity about people, cultures, and how emotions shape digital behavior.

• Ability to collaborate effectively with analytics, product, marketing, and business teams to create  cross-functional insight ecosystems .
