“Unity developer who built a multiplayer system for a game called Drift using Photon PUN, including backend API integration for authentication, score tracking, and live leaderboards. Has experience optimizing real-time sync for WebGL and automating data-to-ScriptableObject pipelines via a custom C# CSV importer generated with ChatGPT.”

“Built and deployed a production bilingual (Bengali/English) AI virtual assistant that replaced IVR for telecom customer service at massive scale (~15M users), integrating ASR/TTS, Rasa dialogue management, and custom NLP. Overcame low-resource Bengali data and noisy call-center audio with synthetic data augmentation and transformer fine-tuning, achieving significant production gains including ~50% reduction in support calls.”

“Built and shipped an AI-powered journaling app feature that analyzes user text for emotions in real time, owning everything from React/TypeScript UX (dynamic theming + Framer Motion) to a FastAPI backend integrating Hugging Face. Has hands-on production experience deploying Dockerized services on AWS (EC2/RDS/S3/CloudWatch) with GitHub Actions CI/CD, and resolved a real latency/scaling incident by converting blocking external API calls to async with retries/timeouts.”

“Gameplay programmer with UE5 Blueprint-focused experience who independently shipped a multiplayer stealable XP/level progression system (including disconnect/anti-exploit handling and team-based data flow). Prototypes mechanics in Unity before recreating in Unreal, and has hands-on vehicle simulation work with a strong emphasis on modular architecture and performance-conscious UI update patterns.”

Remote, USA6y exp

“Unreal Engine generalist (7 years) with hands-on ownership of end-to-end gameplay systems in real-time 3D C++ and UE5, spanning technical level design, animation/locomotion features, and multiplayer replication. Worked on a shipped Steam title ("Peak 53") implementing replicated systems like prone, scope, and ladder, and has also built MMORPG time/weather systems and a projectile/rocket launcher feature for a demo (Meta Island).”

“QA/automation engineer at Meta focused on VR/MR software quality for the Oculus Mixed Reality Toolkit in Unreal Engine. Built and maintained automated coverage using Gauntlet and Cypress, including device-level Quest validation and CI/CD gating (PR, nightly, release). Known for reducing flakiness by decoupling tests from real hardware and for quickly isolating Quest 3 OS movement issues to a specific Meta Movement SDK component with strong diagnostic artifacts.”
