Tripledot Studios is one of the largest independent mobile games companies in the world.

We are a multi-award-winning organisation, with a global 2,500+ strong team across 12 studios.

Our expanded portfolio includes some of the biggest titles in mobile gaming, collectively reaching top chart positions around the world and engaging over 25 million daily active users.

The first initiative you’ll be taking part of are LTV predictions and building the foundations of the data platform that will support it, with work continuing on helping integrate central AI/ML solutions into Tripledot games.
