Top SchoolJ Eckert is a veteran game industry operator and ecosystem builder with nearly two decades of experience scaling teams, products, and partner programs across startups and major publishers. He has led developer relations, community, communications, support, and partnerships at companies like Riot, Genvid, Chia, and EA, consistently shaping strategy while wearing many hats during rapid growth phases. Known as a pragmatic "fixer," he combines technical operations chops and soft-skill diplomacy—often smoothing interactions between product, partners, and legal—to keep complex projects moving. Currently advising and consulting for early-stage studios and anti-tamper technology providers while serving on a game studio board, he brings both day-to-day operational rigor and long-range ecosystem vision. A lifelong gamer, maker, and photographer, he also contributes to the local maker community as a nonprofit board member, signaling a hands-on, community-first approach beyond corporate roles.
