Expertise in C# and Unity3D, with a strong focus on systems architecture, performance optimization (CPU/GPU/Memory), and delivering stable products across mobile, gamified, and XR environments. Proven track record of collaborating with product, design, and engineering teams to translate complex requirements into efficient, user-centric solutions.

Throughout my career, I have led and implemented solutions with direct impact on scale and efficiency, including:

Technical Core: Unity Architecture, Mobile Optimization, XR (AR/VR), UI/UX Implementation, APIs, Design Patterns (SOLID), and engineering best practices focused on long-term scalability and maintainability.

I am currently interested in Senior Unity / Game Development roles, particularly within product-driven companies, mobile gaming, EdTech, or interactive experiences where performance, technical quality, and large-scale impact are priorities.

Always open to connecting and discussing Unity, mobile performance, game systems, and digital products.
