About Mark James
With over 30 years of experience in the video games industry, I am a technology executive who has successfully built and led teams and delivered products across multiple platforms and genres. As the former Chief Technology Officer at Striking Distance Studios, I oversaw the long-term direction and operations of technology development for the studio, supporting the needs of game and product teams at a technical level and implementing standards to improve efficiency and cost-effectiveness. I also facilitated introductions to potential strategic partners, investors, and customers as an advisor at AccelByte Inc, a cloud-based platform for game development and live operations. My mission is to drive excellence in software products that fulfill both the creative vision and the business requirements, and to empower and mentor highly engaged teams that deliver with passion and pride.
