You love pushing apps to their limit, and have a preternatural ability for finding in-app shortcuts, power-user features, easter eggs, "edge case" weirdness, and best of all… bugs.Bugs. Gotta love 'em. (Even more than Timon and Pumba.) Because nothing — nothing — feels as good as the sound of a softly-crunched carapace, vanishing beneath your bootheel.Of course we're speaking metaphorically: as Transit's in-house bug crusher, you won't need latex gloves or bootcovers.
