Wanna work in the games industry?

So, I've been a bit cagey about my new gig in the video game biz.

I have my reasons, but I may as well shake things up:

"Hi, my name's Adam Creighton, and I'm a Senior Product Manager for Emergent Game Technologies."

Emergent is an impressive video game middleware and services company. More than a once trick pony, Emergent has a lot of experience and offerings for people making games, and people offering services and looking to partner for new ways to get their products, technologies, and services out there.

They're also one of the few (only?) of the many game companies with whom I've spoken that "get" there's a lot to be learned from the business and technical world from folks outside of the games industry, adn they're actively hiring for it. No, the games industry may not go ITIL or Six Sigma any time soon, but there are a lot of process and technical problems that have already been solved by the tech sector years ago.

So, why break my "never talk about my day job in my blogs" rule?

Because this is a video game blog. And I now work for a video game company.

And they're hiring like crazy.

Whether your technical, business, managerial, artistic, or whatever, check out the available jobs.

Interested? Get a hold of me here, or via LinkedIn or Plaxo Pulse.

And stay tuned -- there's another reason I'm coming clean about me and Emergent.
