Tariq Fuller

I’m an AI Engineer who blends AI with software engineering to deliver high-quality, practical solutions. I’ve been focused on shipping features end-to-end—integrating systems, improving performance, and making sure the user experience holds up.

At HandshakeAI, I’m working as an AI Trainer, where I engineered and implemented gameplay features and mechanics across multiple engines (including Godot, Panda3D, Solar2D, and Defold). I test, debug, and modify game systems to meet engineering requirements, improving functionality, performance, and code quality while integrating cleanly with frontend and backend components.

Before that, I worked as a Software Engineer at Human Computer Lab, developing and deploying applications with React, Node.js, and MongoDB. I collaborated with cross-functional teams using Agile and REST APIs, and I helped drive a 30% increase in user engagement through feature work and continuous improvements.

I also teach, which shapes how I build and communicate—at theCoderSchool I led the development of 20+ games and interactive applications using Unity and JavaScript. I mentor 25+ students through hands-on projects, emphasizing debugging, logical thinking, and version control with Git, so they learn to build confidently and iterate responsibly.
