As an equal opportunity employer, we are committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive workplace where people are encouraged to come as they are and do their best work. What We Need The Senior Data Scientist (P5) is a senior individual contributor who turns ambiguous business problems from marketing, product, and commercial teams into models and experiments the business can trust and act on. The role owns the data science systems behind that work — keeping models reliable in production and experiments methodologically sound — and serves as the technical lead on the highest-stakes projects. The Senior Data Scientist works with significant independence while partnering closely with senior stakeholders. What You’ll Do - Technical Architecture & System Ownership: Own the design, reliability, and long-term availability of end-to-end Data Science systems, accounting for performance and technical bottlenecks in production-grade predictive models and AI solutions. - Experimental Frameworks: Architect rigorous experimental systems across cross-functional teams, ensuring validation methods are standardized, repeatable, and scalable. - Business Insight & Problem Definition: Partner closely with marketing, product, and commercial teams to diagnose business challenges — spanning areas such as gamer engagement, marketing efficiency measurement, and regional strategy — and define appropriate metrics, analyses, and interpretations to drive strategic decisions. - Statistical & Predictive Modeling: Define requirements for and lead the creation, monitoring, and iterative improvement of key statistical models and AI solutions used for marketing spend optimization, product growth, and player engagement. - Executive Communication & Narrative: Design clear, unambiguous narratives and visualizations to communicate complex data initiatives to broad, non-technical audiences up to the executive level. - Collaboration & Cross-Functional Partnership: Work closely with peers across the broader data and analytics organization toward shared goals — aligning on data sources, standards, and priorities early, and sharing knowledge so the whole team's work compounds rather than duplicates. - Technical Consultation: Reason effectively about the strengths and weaknesses of different modeling approaches, selecting and iterating on combinations that suit specific business contexts. Core Competencies - Behavioral: Solution-oriented, creative problem solver, and self-starter; proactively identifies potential issues; builds compelling narratives from raw data; collaborative and genuinely invested in the work of cross-functional partners. - Functional / Technical: Advanced R or Python programming ability for sophisticated multi-dimensional data sets; advanced SQL “data carpentry” skills across modern data warehouse environments; able to independently implement advanced predictive models. - Strategic Influence: Strong understanding of the business and the context surrounding business asks; ability to bridge technical and business needs and influence product, marketing, and commercial strategy through data-backed evidence at all levels of the organization. Required Qualifications, Knowledge, and Job-Related Skills - Education: BSc, MSc, or PhD in Mathematics, Statistics, Economics, Computer Science, Data Science, Engineering, or another quantitative field. - Experience: 3–5 years of professional experience in data science or machine learning, building models with complex datasets, with a consistent track record of business impact. - Data Systems: Proven experience in relational databases and SQL; ability to work independently within a data warehouse environment. - Methodological Depth: Cognizant of the pros and cons of common methodologies; demonstrated ability to apply various modeling approaches and iterate based on performance. - Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills with a track record of cross-functional collaboration and presenting to senior stakeholders. What Will Make You A Great Fit - Experience in the game-related tech industry (e.g., FAANG, other game companies, etc.). - Experience with Bayesian modeling and causal inference tools such as RStan and CausalImpact, or their Python equivalents.

We build unforgettable experiences by pushing the boundaries of creativity, authenticity and innovation across every genre. Our portfolio is brought to life by some of the most influential game development studios in the world. Visual Concepts, Firaxis Games, Hangar 13, Cat Daddy Games, 31st Union, Cloud Chamber, Gearbox, HB Studios, and 2K SportsLab create world-class experiences across platforms. But what truly powers 2K is our people. We believe the best ideas come from teams that feel empowered, supported, and inspired. As an equal opportunity employer, we are committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive workplace where people are encouraged to come as they are and do their best work. What We Need 2K is looking for a Senior Manager, Social & Community to own the community management and social marketing vision, strategy, and execution across two of our marquee sports franchises: WWE 2K and PGA TOUR 2K. You will lead a team of Digital Community & Social Media Managers and a roster of external agency partners, setting the standard for how 2K shows up on the platforms where our players live — Steam, Discord, Reddit, YouTube, Twitch, TikTok, and the console storefronts. These are live service sports titles with distinct, deeply invested audiences: WWE 2K's creative and roster-obsessed community, and PGA TOUR 2K's career players, golf faithful, and course designers. Community is the heart of this role. You are the voice of both communities inside 2K, the player advocate who translates sentiment into action with our Development and Global Marketing teams. Social marketing is how you scale that voice outward: you will steer platform-specific social strategies and campaigns that grow our presence, build cultural relevance for our brands, and promote positive sentiment across our player base. You will build and scale community and social channels, own the listening and analytics practice for both franchises, and report regularly to marketing, studio, and leadership stakeholders on what players need while driving meaningful, player-first change in-game and out. This is a strategic and hands-on role: you will set direction, and you will also roll up your sleeves alongside your team during live seasons, roster updates, and launch windows. Proactivity, excellent communication, and the ability to navigate ambiguity are crucial for success. Reporting to the Senior Director, Integrated Marketing, the ideal candidate is a sports gaming enthusiast with a genuine feel for competitive and creative communities, and a track record of activating and growing them in innovative, measurable ways. The ideal candidate will be able to join us in office Tuesday–Thursday of each week in our Los Angeles office. What You'll Do Team Leadership - Lead, coach, and develop a team of Digital Community & Social Media Managers across the WWE 2K and PGA TOUR 2K franchises, setting clear goals, growth plans, and standards of excellence. - Own the community and social operating model for both franchises. Which will include staffing, coverage during live windows, escalation paths, tone of voice, publishing cadence, and moderation standards and hold agency partners accountable to it. - Manage external community, social, and moderation agencies, including scopes of work, budgets, response messaging plans, and moderation guides, primarily for Discord and Steam reviews/forums. - Serve as the senior community and social voice in the room: make critical decisions quickly, take a measured approach to risk, and be willing to have the hard conversations with cross-functional partners when the player experience is at stake. Digital Community Relations (Voice of the Consumer) - Set the strategy for how we engage and build relationships with players across Steam, Discord, Reddit, and emerging platforms, and ensure your team executes it consistently across both franchises. - Partner with Brand, Creator/Influencer, Communications, Insights & Analytics, and our Development partners at Visual Concepts and HB Studios to champion the needs and wants of our players and improve our game experiences. - Own the feedback loop for both title communities, and find ways to cross-leverage learnings between WWE 2K, PGA TOUR 2K, and the wider 2K sports portfolio. - Use analytics and social listening tools to identify and quantify player needs, and turn them into regular, decision-ready reporting for marketing, studio, and executive stakeholders. - Guide the marketing, social, and communications teams in coordinating and executing community-facing requests of the development teams, including patch and season communications, roster and course update messaging, and live issue response. Social Marketing - Serve as the social marketing expert for both franchises, collaborating with cross-functional teams to prioritize and streamline efforts while managing expectations, timelines, and team needs to execute social workstreams and campaigns. - Develop platform-specific global social marketing strategies in collaboration with Global Social Marketing, increasing our presence across channels and building cultural relevance for our games and brands. - Develop and execute social marketing campaigns built from audience insights and aligned to our identified target audiences, from annual launches through live seasons. - Steer creative ideation and social content development needed to launch best-in-class campaigns, bringing good taste in content and a clear eye for which approaches will move the needle. - Ensure community insight feeds social creative and social performance feeds community strategy, so the two disciplines compound rather than run in parallel. Community & Social Growth Strategy - Define community growth strategies for both franchises and every platform where our experiences are featured, in partnership with cross-functional publishing partners. - Develop and execute the flagship community programs that celebrate our fan base for the advocates they are. Think about creator showcases, community councils, in-game creation and course design spotlights, tournaments and seasonal moments — stoking the core while incentivizing new players to join. - Identify key creator opportunities in partnership with Creator/Influencer Marketing that engage and grow our communities in the most creative and positive ways possible. - Ladder all community and social activations up to the master Go-To-Market strategies for annual releases, seasons, and live content beats. - Develop community and social engagement and growth performance metrics for both franchises, providing in-depth performance analysis and consistent reporting on campaign performance, channel engagement, and player sentiment — with a keen sense of what, why, and how metrics need to be delivered on. - Stay ahead of new platforms, tools, formats, and trends, and bring recommendations to leadership on where 2K sports should be showing up next. Collaboration and Communication - Collaborate with cross-functional publishing partners (Global Brand Marketing, Communications, Creator/Influencer Marketing, Product Development, Insights & Analytics, Partnerships & Licensing, Legal, and the studios) in defining community and social marketing strategies and campaigns. - Regularly partner, present, and report to key stakeholders on strategies, plans, findings, results, and recommendations that influence product and marketing roadmaps in service of our players. - Communicate and evangelize goals and plans so internal teams, agencies, and development partners are working in lock-step toward the same outcomes.
