At EA, we strive to inspire the world to play. 

Consumer Insights is constantly in pursuit of understanding our players - their motivations for playing games and how their behaviors change alongside the ever-changing gaming market. This role within CI will lead research for our studios, brands, and the games they create. You’ll partner closely with our studios, brand and marketing teams, as well as fellow researchers and analysts in North America and Europe.

We’re looking for all the best kinds of people to make great experiences for our team members and our players.

• EA’s studios and brandleadership - we partner closely with decision-makers and thought-leaders across development, marketing, publishing, and brand to inform strategies from greenlight to launch and throughout live services.

In a typical week, this person could be…

• Out in the field (live or virtually), talking with players about their gaming experiences and interests, which will guide the game team towards experiences they should build
• Analyzing data, and building a story that guides product and marketing in their decision-making
• Designing insights projects that guide new feature development, using traditional or innovative techniques that are qualitative or quantitative in nature
• Consulting with our stakeholders and partners to workshop strategy and features, the essence of your studios’ brands and target players, driving knowledge that identifies your games’ place in our EA portfolio
