What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can build modular Unity/Unreal gameplay systems, integrate AI and UI, and support strong cinematic workflows—while collaborating closely with artists and learning new tech in dynamic environments.

I’m a game programmer generalist with expertise in Unity and Unreal programming, and I enjoy building systems that make teams move faster. I’m known for strong time management, organized task prioritization, and adaptability when new technologies appear.

In contract roles, I’ve architected modular, reusable gameplay systems and core plugins to streamline the development pipeline and reduce iteration time. I’ve integrated engine features and SDK functionality (like authentication, telemetry, and multiplayer services) while keeping code clean and well-documented, and I’ve collaborated closely with technical artists, animators, and designers.

My experience also spans cutscenes, UI/HUD implementation, and AI logic (State Tree and Behavior Trees), plus cinematic workflows such as Movie Render Queue and Level Sequencer integration. I’ve broadened into XR with Unity and the XR Interaction Toolkit, and I’ve done hardware/software game development using Python, VJoy, and WebSocket-based real-time HUD updates.
