About the Job
About Us:
Humble Bundle sells games, ebooks, software, and other digital content. Our key differentiators from the beginning have been charitable giving, curation and being platform agnostic. We launched in 2010 with a single two-week Humble Indie Bundle, but we have humbly grown into a storefront, a subscription service, a game publisher, and more. To date, we’ve raised over $260M for charity.
