Our Job of the Week column today features an opening for a full-stack developer with a fast-growing company providing eSports analytics -- Repable.
Repable, which is based in Moncton and Toronto, collects and analyzes data on eSports, or competitive gaming, a fast-growing international phenomenon. It’s estimated some 200 million people watched competitive gaming in 2016.
Co-Founders Heather Anne Carson and Sean Power teamed up in 2015 to create a product that would give analytics on viewership in eSports. The pasttime is growing so quickly that major consumer product brands want to use it as a marketing vehicle, but they don’t know how. It’s an opportunity to reach a young audience that doesn’t usually watch television, let alone read newspapers. But these brands don’t have firm metrics on who or what to sponsor or how to approach this new craze. So Repable’s analytics give them the information they need to work in this booming market.
The Jobs of the Week column features openings posted on the Entrevestor Job Board, which focuses on jobs in technology, innovation and startups in Atlantic Canada. The Entrevestor Job Board helps match job openings and candidates in the tech and start-up communities and is operated by Entrevestor and Alongside.
