  • Advise customers on new Pragma features, releases, and partner integration by developing examples, performing demonstrations, or coordinating proof of concept projects with studios.

  • Help develop and deliver pre-sales demos, demonstrating the value of the Pragma Platform.

  • Communicate with your team and product management about how studios are leveraging Pragma

  • Capture studios usage or objectives internally through thorough documentation, training materials, and demos, highlighting best practices.

  • Mentor new team members on the implementation of the Pragma Platform.

Qualifications

  • Strong communication skills with the ability to explain deeply technical topics simply, and facilitate collaboration with a wide variety of customers.

  • Development experience integrating with backend services, especially game platforms.

  • Deep empathy for game developers and a desire to work with them to solve problems.

  • A customer-oriented mindset that prioritizes problem solving.

  • Game development, service development, or work with game engines like Unreal and Unity.

Job Benefits

  • A remote-first work environment with semi-annual in-person meetups
