What I'm looking for

I seek an XR role where I can build immersive Unity VR/AR applications, collaborate cross-functionally, and grow technical skills in computer vision and scalable backend systems.

I am a Computer Engineering graduate focused on building immersive Virtual and Augmented Reality experiences using Unity, OpenXR, and AR Foundation. I have delivered collaborative VR museums, AR mobile games, and automated 3D-model pipelines, and published my bachelor thesis as a conference paper in PAAMS 2025 (Springer CCIS).

I combine strong software engineering foundations in C++, C#, Java, Python and web backend development with practical skills in Blender, photogrammetry, containerized deployment (Docker, Kubernetes), and AI-assisted asset generation to create scalable, interactive XR applications that emphasize storytelling, usability, and technical robustness.
