Knight of Cups

"The Passionate Advocate"

Cups · People & Team

Upright +1

The engineer who actually cares about the user. Knight of Cups is the person who reads the support tickets, who puts accessibility into the sprint without being asked, who writes the error message that a real human can understand. They are emotionally invested in the product, and right now, that is exactly what this deploy needs.

Reversed -1

The engineer whose passion has curdled into martyrdom. They care so much it has become a weapon — guilt-tripping the team for not working weekends, sending midnight Slack messages with passive 'just noticed this' energy, and treating every technical disagreement as a moral failing. The Knight of Cups reversed loves the product more than the people building it.
