Computer Scientist | Software Engineer | Game Developer

Professional Snapshot

I have spent years working across the parts of game development I enjoy most: C++ gameplay, AI, multiplayer systems, level design, and, more recently, multiplatform DevOps. I am a generalist at heart, with production experience that now stretches from server-authoritative Unreal Engine 5 systems to the pipelines behind a PC and console release.

Most Recent Role

DevOps Engineer at Stormind Games since June 2026.
I work hands-on with Unreal Engine 5 CI/CD and am directly responsible for managing the pipelines for Remothered: Red Nun's Legacy across every launch platform: PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2.

Core Stack

Shipping platforms: PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2.
---
Build & DevOps: cross-platform CI/CD, Jenkins, build and release automation, UBT/UAT, cooking, packaging and publishing workflows, Git/Git LFS, Docker, Linux, Python, Bash, Batch, and command-line tooling.
---
Game development: Unreal Engine 5, C++, C#, Blueprints, Gameplay Ability System (GAS), AI Behavior Trees and EQS, replication, RPCs, dedicated servers, and Steamworks.

Key Strengths

I am a generalist at heart, and I genuinely enjoy moving wherever a project needs me most.
One day that can mean working deep in AI or gameplay code, and the next, untangling a broken build pipeline, helping with level design, or organizing work with the rest of the team.
I tend to take ownership of messy problems, keep digging until I understand what is actually going wrong, and find the solution.
I also care about communicating clearly, especially when a problem sits between programmers, designers, production, and platform requirements.
