  • An innovative, empathetic, and collaborative spirit  
  • Exceptional communication, interpersonal, and presentation skills (you’re able to clearly explain your thought process on paper and in person)  
  • Critical thinking, curiosity, resourcefulness, and plenty of flexibility
  • A solid understanding of the market and a passion for video games – you play enough to know what makes quality gameplay!

What to send our way

  • Your CV highlighting your education, experience, and skills 
  • Samples of your work (attach files or send us a link to your demo reel or online portfolio)
