Experience

Lumen Interactive

• Own the player controller and combat framework for an unannounced Unreal Engine 5 action title.
• Built a data-driven ability system so designers tune attacks and hitboxes without a recompile.
• Mentored two junior programmers and set up the team's C++ code review and profiling practices.

Pixelfront Studio

• Wrote the stylised shader stack in HLSL and shipped it across two Unity titles.
• Built a node-based VFX authoring tool that cut effect iteration from days to hours.
• Introduced GPU frame captures into CI so performance regressions were caught before release.

Indie / Solo

• Shipped two small games solo — an arcade racer and a mobile tactics game — from prototype to store.
• Wrote a from-scratch 2D engine in C++ with a Vulkan renderer to learn the full stack.
