Junior Developer (Internship) at EduFearn Internship
February 17, 2025 - February 28, 2025During the internship I worked on developing mini-games for an educational game built in Unity. I focused on developing and streaming the code, integrated quickly with the production workflow and development team, and contributed code that smoothly integrated with the existing model. I built an understanding of the existing codebase in a few days and suggested improvements to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of the codebase. I completed the assigned work ahead of the deadline, enabling me to provide additional assistance to the development team.
