Case Study: System Era Softworks achieves a stable, scalable game analytics platform with InterWorks

System Era Softworks builds 25+ data models and 6 Tableau dashboards with InterWorks

System Era Softworks, the Seattle-based game studio behind ASTRONEER, faced a challenge with their data platform during the development of their new title, STARSEEKER. They needed to quickly pivot from a legacy system to a scalable solution for their Snowflake and Tableau environments to support both games without disrupting their fast-moving development cycle. Their Tableau account manager recommended they turn to InterWorks for help with data engineering and managed services.

InterWorks stabilized the existing Snowflake environment and then modernized it by implementing a Medallion architecture using dbt. They built automated monitoring and delivered key Tableau dashboards for player analytics. The results included over 25 new data models, 6 new dashboards, and a complete platform transformation. This partnership embedded InterWorks into the development process, allowing for rapid response to changes and directly influencing game design decisions before launch.
