What I'm looking for

I want to work on systems where clean engineering, testing, and performance matter—using C++ or TypeScript to build reliable features and applying LLMs to automate validation with measurable quality.

I’m a Computer Science graduate who builds software with a strong C++ foundation and a growing focus on generative AI. I’ve worked across game development, server-side features, and LLM-assisted tooling, always prioritizing correctness, testing, and maintainable design.

As a C++ Developer with Cornered Rat Software Studio, I contributed to an API integration with Unreal Engine 5 and helped transition rendering to Unreal Engine 5. I also improved gameplay features—including camera control, UI functionality, and despawning mechanisms—while collaborating with engineering and product teams across the full software development life cycle.

At Outlier.ai, I evaluated over 50 LLM code outputs for correctness using intermediate knowledge of C++, Python, and SQL. I also implemented a Dockerfile-based GitHub repository build and validation system that leverages LLMs to automate building and executing test suites for repository validation.

I’ve also built server-side capabilities as a Multiversus Infinite volunteer server developer, reverse engineering server API behavior in TypeScript and implementing helpful matchmaking-related endpoints. My projects reflect this same mindset—performance, concurrency safety, and measurable quality—ranging from a tested limit order book engine to a multi-threaded ray tracer, plus an in-progress CLI AI assistant using Cocoindex, tree-sitter, and ranx.
