Magic: The Gathering is an enormously popular fantasy-based collectible card game that launched that gaming genre. Since 1993, the corporate owner, Wizards of the Coast, has produced billions of Magic cards.
When you're looking at billions of pieces of paper with variable values, you need an economist to understand how they behave. That's why Wizards of the Coast is hiring a Senior Design Economist to study how the game is played and help the company make prudent design decisions about it.
The job posting is here. You'll need a graduate degree in economics or some other data science field and a familiarity with an analytical programming language.
