Hi! I’m Sawaiz Bilal Khan, a game developer specializing in Unreal Engine (C++ and Blueprints) with a focus on multiplayer gameplay, online infrastructure, and production-ready systems. I’ve worked on naval combat and multiplayer social experiences, building and extending features like matchmaking/lobbies, reconnect handling, server provisioning, replicated gameplay state, UI workflows, and backend integrations.
I also enjoy tackling challenging engine and platform work—migrating projects across Unreal versions, optimizing Android performance using Unreal Insights, and troubleshooting networking and replication issues across multi-client testing. Beyond shipping features, I like empowering designers through editor tools and data-driven pipelines, and I’m currently working on expanding multiplayer capabilities and stability for my ongoing projects.
