What I'm looking for

I am seeking a senior engineering role focused on scaling CI/CD and build systems, collaborative cross-functional teams, automation, and measurable performance improvements.

I am a detail-oriented Senior Build Engineer with over 10 years of professional experience optimizing and scaling CI/CD systems for game projects.

I have designed and implemented scalable Unreal BuildGraph pipelines, improved distributed build systems using Jenkins and Horde, and introduced containerization with Docker to increase build scalability and resource management.

My work routinely focuses on diagnosing and resolving build performance issues using C++ and C#, automating build scripts with Python and Bash, and establishing best practices for version control and branching strategies across teams.

I value cross-disciplinary collaboration, comprehensive documentation, and monitoring-driven reliability using tools like Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK to deliver efficient, repeatable build workflows.
