Senior Software Engineer specializing in game platforms and player-facing systems

Brier, WA27y exp

“Senior engineer with a rare mix of game-platform and mobile content-delivery experience: helped ship the Xbox 360 Party system and later architected the custom multi-catalog asset pipeline behind Netflix Stories. Particularly compelling for teams needing someone who can design scalable, low-memory, high-stability systems for live content across many titles and external partners.”

“Gameplay engineer with shipped mobile multiplayer experience on Squid Game: Unleashed, where they owned the Usable Items system end-to-end in Unity/C#. Built a modular ScriptableObject/action-based architecture that let designers create new item behaviors quickly without engineering support, while also handling network sync, prediction-related debugging, and internal validation tooling as the content library scaled.”

“Technology/architecture leader with Accenture experience delivering data- and AI/ML-driven products, including a legal contract search solution and customer sales analytics for AWS. Known for scaling distributed teams (onshore/offshore), making pragmatic architecture decisions, and solving hard data problems (proprietary sources, data quality) while implementing scalable integrations like Redshift-to-Salesforce via parallelized pipelines.”

Principal Software Engineer specializing in scalable, secure multi-platform systems

La Crescenta, CA14y exp

“Engineering leader and former CTO/Disney|ABC engineering manager who built white-label mobile app architecture that supported a branded app and successful exit, and later scaled Disney Channel brand app teams across iOS/Android/web and major OTT platforms. Led kid-safety architecture for DisneyNOW (“Junior mode” with PIN) and partnered with product/legal on COPPA compliance, emphasizing maintainable tech choices and strong execution processes.”

“AI-native engineer who says 100% of current development is done through coding agents and reports roughly 10x productivity gains. Currently building 'AI TV,' a production video-generation system with multi-agent orchestration, including a motion-graphics pipeline where agents handle high-level design, low-level implementation, and iterative review. Particularly strong in designing codebases and workflows so AI systems can effectively use architectural and product context.”
