“Frontend/product engineer with strong experience building sophisticated AI-assisted browser UIs for customer support operations in healthcare/therapy contexts. Particularly compelling for teams needing someone who can combine modern web architecture, observability, typed systems, and human-in-the-loop AI UX to improve both reliability and agent efficiency.”

“Gameplay engineer/designer with Unity experience spanning a Peloton open-world multiplayer cycling game (progression, difficulty normalization via FTP, replayability through medals/cosmetics) and a mixed reality soccer training game using a motion-tracked ball. Known for pragmatic, metrics-driven tuning (session length/mission duration), rapid playtest-led iteration, and cross-discipline execution including performance tooling (LOD batch editor) and phased multiplayer implementation planning.”

“Frontend engineer from Amazon Advertising who owned a sophisticated React/TypeScript ad creative builder used by advertisers and ad ops teams. Stands out for combining deep browser-level debugging with product-minded UX improvements that reduced support escalations and made complex multi-placement ad configuration faster and more reliable for power users.”
