When we say a “team player” we mean it - you have a crisp high-five and funny stories to tell. You have your team’s back, and the team has yours. • You love learning new things: You know that there’s always more to learn. You’re up-to-date on new trends in data – you know who’s using what to solve various problems and are excited for the next release of your favorite tool. • Past experience in the Esports/Gaming/Betting/Events industry would be a great asset. • You make the time to cheer and enjoy the ride.
