“Unity/C# gameplay engineer with strong systems and optimization focus, including architecting a networked ability system that reduced networking load via lightweight ID-based replication. Also brings experience with AI-driven game tooling for Meta, custom internal tools, and mobile multiplayer performance tuning across graphics, networking, and input architecture.”

“Unity developer focused on VR/AR multiplayer, with hands-on experience building Photon Fusion/PUN systems including networking, sync, and matchmaking. Has scaled a modular multiplayer architecture to handle more players/features while addressing latency and data consistency, and has optimized Meta Quest/mobile performance using pooling, LODs, batching, and profiling.”

“Unity/VR developer who built multiple VR experiences (including Meta Quest B2B work) and has shipped complex gameplay systems end-to-end. Created custom Unity ScriptableObject tooling to massively accelerate puzzle level creation and implemented security/optimization solutions for a multiplayer blockchain FPS involving NFT/player data.”

“Unity developer with broad cross-platform experience (HTC Vive VR, iOS/Android, Nintendo Switch, WebGL) who built a near-solo multiplayer AR iOS party game using Photon/PUN and AR Foundation. Demonstrates strong practical networking and performance optimization skills, including lag compensation and client-side shader-based rendering strategies.”

“Unity game developer with hands-on gameplay AI experience (FSM-driven monsters with customized NavMeshAgent movement) focused on creating readable, high-tension survival encounters through iterative tuning. Has shipped/created 4 Unity games solo end-to-end (UI, animations, architecture, state machines) and has also built a full Python game server; some exposure to Photon Fusion and strong client/server REST API implementation experience.”

“Unity multiplayer gameplay engineer who architected the combat/power-up system for Tanks Alpha and scaled it from prototype to multiplayer by separating local gameplay from network sync and sending only critical state changes. Hands-on with Photon PUN across multiple titles (Tanks Alpha, LudoIn, CryptoPlay), including matchmaking/rooms, RPC interactions, and disconnect/rejoin handling, plus strong mobile and Meta Quest VR performance optimization (object pooling to reduce GC spikes and stabilize FPS).”

Senior Game Developer specializing in mobile game monetization and live ops

Lahore, Pakistan10y exp

“Unity game developer who built a level-based game (“Race Off”) and focused heavily on refining gameplay feel—especially movement and camera—through repeated playtesting and comparison to other titles. Has networking experience using Photon Unity Networking and integrating an in-house server via REST APIs (GET/PUT/POST/DELETE) to drive game updates, and uses AI tools like DeepSeek for code optimization.”

“Unity gameplay engineer with experience shipping features for a multiplayer cricket title (RVG Cricket), including a high-impact replay system that records and replays full play sequences across all on-field entities. Also implemented Photon-based multiplayer and debugged host/client execution issues, and uses AI tools to speed up data enrichment workflows (e.g., generating/matching country ISO codes from JSON into ScriptableObjects).”

“Unity gameplay developer who built a distinctive scalable turn-based system for multi-enemy encounters by tracking turns per player-enemy engagement and adding a turn-reversion mechanic when players disengage. Also leveraged AI-assisted workflows to build a Unity editor tool that accelerated creation of ~20 levels on a tight schedule, and has foundational experience with Unity Netcode (lobbies/sessions and multi-build testing).”
