What I'm looking for

I'm looking to own gameplay architecture, LiveOps, content pipelines, tooling, and performance for commercial Unity products across mobile F2P, multiplayer, XR, or interactive 3D.

At Stellarplay Games, I own gameplay and LiveOps systems across five live mobile F2P titles, building progression, event-state, lives/revival, Addressables content delivery, and internal tools that let teams ship weekly updates across three SKUs.

I've delivered multiplayer, simulation, hyper-casual, AR, and interactive 3D products at Juego Studios and ITC Infotech. My work spans Unity/C# architecture, gameplay loops, performance optimization, content pipelines, playable ad creatives, SmartFox and backend integrations, and production stability across mobile, XR, and connected game experiences.
