In the last year alone, the game has seen its highest player counts, strongest player sentiment, and business outcomes in nearly a decade.

This requires a unique combination of data-driven thinking to identify strategic opportunities, the creativity and passion to execute in player-centric ways, and the collaboration and ability to influence and align deeply passionate and invested teams.
