crewmate
Ship team member
A crewmate is a fellow member of a crew—someone who works alongside you on a ship, aircraft, or team.
The word gained widespread currency through the video game Among Us, where players identify as crewmates trying to complete tasks while imposters sabotage them: One of us is not a real crewmate.
