Thomas B. Krogh-Jacobsen

As part of my work leading Unitys release marketing efforts, I've been fortunate to team up with Charles as release manager on several betas and full releases. Charles has been a vital partner in tracking feature completion and risk assessment in the QA process for product marketing. On multiple occasions, Charles has demonstrated how he is willing to go that extra mile for the product and the community, volunteering to be part of expert panels with our Q&A and roadmap sessions. Charles has been a greatly appreciated colleague by both my team and me and a professional I can only highly recommend.

J’ai eu la chance de travailler sous la direction de Charles sur Assassin's Creed. C'est une personne sympathique avec qui il fait bon travailler et c'est un bon leader. Charles est un atout de choix et je le recommande.
