What I'm looking for

I’m looking for senior C++ roles in real-time graphics, simulation, or systems programming, remote from Spain or based in Spain. I’m also open to UK roles.

At Climax Studios, I contribute to gameplay and UI systems, adapting HUD elements for controllers and varied resolutions. I’ve also developed performance analysis tools and asynchronous loading systems for gameplay and cutscenes across projects using Unreal Engine and custom engines.

Before that, I was the sole developer on the Android port of an iOS AR wall-painting app, rebuilding it without the iOS source using C++/NDK and a custom OpenGL rendering layer. Optimized to sustain 60 FPS on mid-range Android devices, SPECTRUM_mobile shipped on Google Play and became the base for client forks including Alpina, Benjamin Moore, and Materialo.
