Kraken
Lead Developer
Name (Steam Name):
Riven
Tell us about yourself:
As of now I am in college and I am currently working for my degree in Information Technology, before however it was Atmospheric Science. For my job I currently work as a Network Engineer for CNI and I also help out other private organizations. For doing programming and development is more of a hobby. I enjoyed working with Revival before as both Senior Developer and Director of Development. Hopefully I will be working with Revival again. My hopes are to help both SCP and Halo out due to a lot of the older developers retiring.
What role are you taking? (Programmer, Server Configurator, Mapper etc.):
Server Configurator/Programmer
Please describe your experience in the field relevant to the role you're applying for:
I have been using GLua for roughly 4-5 years now and experience with optimization and seamless configuration. I also do programming with custom entities as well as bug fixes. Custom scripts and entire addons I do stray away from because they tend to be long term projects and with my busy schedule I can lose track of the bigger things.
Another thing is that I have been apart of revival for almost 4 years now or since the beginning in short. It was right around when SN merged with revival and I was a developer for a short time but I retired because at that point it was in high stride. So I came back early summer of last year and became a Developer, working all the way up to D.D. and then retiring again due to in-game positions and real life getting in the way again.
Why do you want to become a developer for Revival? (One Paragraph Min.):
I am interested in becoming a developer again because I had no issues before and I enjoyed the team that I worked with. I just had to deal with a lot of issues in real life at the time and until I could come back safely I waited. I also am interested in helping SCP build up again and continued service toward Halo. I am more than happy to help both out as I did do it once before. I will also be happy to lend any assistance to other developers if needed.
What can you bring to the development team?:
I will bring a strong work ethic and dedication to the team as I did before, I have no intentions of holding anyone back and have my eyes set on the future.
Any extra information please add it here:
I will show some of my projects here, please do note that some of them are intentionally fragmented so that they cannot be copied successfully.
