== About ==

Jeb joined Mojang on December 1, 2010, as a game developer.<ref name="intro">https://web.archive.org/web/0/http://notch.tumblr.com/post/1619018018/introducing-jens</ref> Starting out as a back-end developer for ''[[Scrolls]]'', Jeb became increasingly involved in the development of ''Minecraft'', implementing features like [[wolves]], [[piston]]s, and map structures ([[village]]s, [[stronghold]]s and [[nether fortress]]es). Jeb later took the lead position in ''Minecraft'' development in December 2011 when [[Markus Persson]] stepped down.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/0/http://notch.tumblr.com/post/13633493969/och-med-dom-orden-sa-passar-jag-micken</ref><ref>{{tweet|notch|142605178762305536}}</ref> On December 12, 2012, he announced that he would also take the lead of ''[[Pocket Edition]]''.<ref>{{tweet|jeb|278859663095779328}}</ref> Jeb used the [[Minecraft Wiki:About|Minecraft Wiki]] as [[User:Jeb mojang|Jeb mojang]],<ref>{{tweet|jeb|60983447396691968}}</ref><ref name="wiki name" group="note" /> where he was particularly active in the [[MCW:Issues|issue lists]], which he sanctioned as the official place to report and discuss ''Minecraft'' bugs and annoyances before the introduction of the official [[bug tracker]]. In April 2013, Jeb together with [[Markus Persson]] was included the annual TIME 100 listicle of the most influential people in the world.<ref>http://time100.time.com/2013/04/18/time-100/slide/markus-persson-and-jens-bergensten</ref>
