Who We Think Will Be A Great Fit
At VC, initiative, smarts and passion make things happen, and politics simply don’t exist. In part because of all of this as well as VC’s consistent stability and success as a studio, some of the world’s smartest people come here and make VC a long term career. When interviewing, we look for intelligent problem solving with creative and constructive collaborative skills. We don’t write junk and we don’t hire people that do. We always push the metal to the limits, whether it’s servers or consoles, and we look for people that understand what’s going on under the hood. So the engineers we hire understand data structures, good programming practice, and they know where memory comes from and how CPUs work.
