    How has your career grown since starting at the company?

    My career has grown in so many ways at BombBomb. I started off on a more traditional design path but through goal setting, leadership support, and team growth I was able to pursue a career path in product design. I was recently promoted to Lead Senior Product Designer, which I would not have been able to do without the support of BombBomb.
