- A strong understanding of graphics and game engine (or equivalent) many-cycles-per-second data pipelines
- A good understanding of software architecture and public facing low level API design
- The desire and ability to work to deadlines, quickly and deftly where necessary, and ship on time
The following would be a plus:

- Experience with motion/gesture interfaces (Kinect, Wii, etc.)
