I’m a C++ engineer from Finland with 4+ years of professional experience across game development, automotive software, and real-time graphics systems.
I’ve built vehicle AI and gameplay systems in Unreal Engine, developed C++ APIs for Android Auto on a major automotive platform, and worked on 3D streaming pipelines, LOD systems, and occlusion culling in Unity and native C++.
I enjoy hard technical problems — from algorithm design to deployment — and work well across engineering, design, and art teams.
