Why This Hire Matters

Gaming companies need to create engaging player experiences while managing live-service operations and monetization. The data science talent pool has been diluted by bootcamp graduates who can train a model in a notebook but struggle to deploy one in production. Chennai's talent market is more relationship-driven than Bangalore's — referrals and network-based hiring outperform cold outreach significantly a principal-level mis-hire can set an organization's technical direction back by years — the blast radius of a wrong decision at this level is enormous
