Available to hire
I’m Andrew Hawkins, a senior game developer with 15+ years of Unity experience and 3+ years in Unreal Engine, shipping multiple commercial games across console and mobile. I specialize in gameplay systems, tools development, real-time 3D, and VR/AR, and I thrive in turning prototypes into shipped products through full production pipelines.
I’ve led teams and held roles such as CTO and lecturer, building real-time simulation and gameplay systems using C++ and Python. I’ve mentored teams, implemented pipelines with Agile practices, and taught Unity and Unreal-driven curriculums at North Metropolitan TAFE since 2009.
