What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a role where I can apply my experience in Unity, real-time systems, and full-stack game engineering to solve genuinely challenging problems, not just maintain what works. I want a team where I keep learning new stacks or domains, and where that growth creates real impact, not just for my resume. I value craftsmanship, mentorship, and being stretched.

Lead Software Engineer with 11+ years of professional software engineering experience, including deep expertise in C#,object-oriented software design, and Unity in large-scale production environments across mobile, multiplayer, and live-service titles.

Proven track record designing and maintaining scalable client architecture gameplay systems, data-driven configuration, and UI-facing systems with a focus on modularity, testability, and long-term maintainability.

Experienced across the mobile platform lifecycle on iOS and Android, including performance tuning, memory management, profiling, and release readiness, alongside CI/CD, build automation, and release pipeline ownership.

Skilled in production incident analysis and issue resolution across client systems, platform integrations, and monetization flows, and in establishing code review standards, debugging practices, and technical documentation to raise engineering quality.

Strong technical mentor to engineers at all levels, comfortable driving cross-team technical decisions and aligning client architecture with design, product, QA, and live-ops stakeholders in fast-moving, content-heavy production environments.
