Hi, I’m Terry Keyrouz, a Game Programmer and Full-Stack Engineer with 5+ years of experience building real-time games, multiplayer systems, and production software. I specialize in Unreal Engine (C++) and C#/.NET, with a strong focus on gameplay systems, performance, and clean, scalable architecture. I’m comfortable owning features end-to-end, collaborating across disciplines, and delivering production-ready systems in both game and enterprise environments. I’ve worked across the full stack, from real-time client systems to APIs, cloud services, and data pipelines, and I enjoy turning ideas into robust, maintainable software.
