Who you are:
As a human, you’re a visionary explorer, a pursuer of fun, and focused on building community. You see an opportunity within games to do more and to have more than “just a job”.

You are curious, a troubleshooter, and highly communicative. You love seeing others succeed and are always on hand to solve their technical concerns. You connect with people through humour and curiosity, and are able to work autonomously to fix the problems on hand.
