What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead and mentor cross-functional game teams while shaping scalable client-side architecture, technical strategy, feature prioritisation, and high-quality live game delivery.

I've led engineering, QA, production, art, and external partners across games including Gameloft's Asphalt Legends Unite, Scopely's Scrabble GO and Yahtzee, and Tilting Point's central technology platform. At Gameloft, I launched the largest update in over a year across two new platforms while managing nine direct reports and supporting a 20+ programmer team.

I'm equally comfortable shaping client-side architecture and building hands-on features in Unity, from multiplayer and networking to performance, SDKs, and release stability. My people-focused approach centers on autonomy, ownership, and trust, using regular 1on1s, clear growth plans, and coaching to help teams become motivated and self-directed.
