Senior Software Engineer
I ship games, build backend systems, and write engines from scratch. 8+ years of turning ambitious ideas into production software — across Unity, C#/.NET, and C++.
About
Who I Am
I'm a senior software engineer with 8+ years of experience shipping cross-platform production software — published games on Steam and Google Play, a scalable VR collaboration platform serving enterprise clients like PwC and Aramco, and custom game engines and renderers built from the ground up.
I write clean, maintainable code grounded in SOLID principles and design patterns. Whether it's architecting multiplayer infrastructure for hundreds of concurrent users, building AI-driven applications, or keeping VR locked at 90 FPS — I deliver measurable results in Agile environments.

Featured Work
Senior Software Engineer @ Arthur
Arthur is an enterprise VR collaboration platform that lets distributed teams work together in immersive virtual offices. Backed by Draper Associates, the platform serves Fortune 500 clients including PwC, Aramco, Société Générale, and the United Nations — enabling real-time meetings, workshops, and productivity sessions across VR headsets, desktop, and web. A University of Münster study found that Arthur's VR meetings improved team engagement, collaboration, and creativity over traditional video conferencing.
Building all client-side systems on the platform — from multiplayer infrastructure and VR game systems to AI-driven features and cloud integrations.
Epic Battles of History
A fully shipped PC game on Steam — strategic combat meets historical battles. Took it from first prototype to public release.
