“Internship experience at Paycom owning an end-to-end personalized course recommendation feature for an LMS, spanning SQL-based data pipelines, ML integration, and FastAPI REST services for real-time recommendations. Focused on production tradeoffs (latency vs. accuracy), scaling/SQL optimization, and post-launch iteration driven by engagement metrics.”

“Backend/security-focused engineer from VeroTX who built an IdP service (Spring Boot + MongoDB on GCP) for an AI workflow platform and drove major latency improvements via caching and query/index optimization. Also shipped an AI loan-processing agent using LangChain/LangGraph, owning the document ingestion + vector database layer and designing a reliable multi-step workflow with retries, monitoring, and human-in-the-loop safeguards.”

“Game design capstone project owner who built and tuned a full steal/sell/upgrade progression economy for a house-robbery game, including item weight/value balancing, upgrade pacing, and difficulty gates (police/NPC detection). Iterated via playtests and basic telemetry signals (purchase rates, item selection) and implemented a code-driven item attribute system to speed tuning, while also negotiating scope tradeoffs with the team around adding minigames.”

“UK-based Unity developer who served as the sole developer building VR training scenarios for the oil & gas industry, deploying to Meta Quest and Pico 4 via OpenXR. Experienced translating complex real-world procedures (e.g., offshore rigging/lifting) into interactive VR flows using storyboards, C# scripting, and iterative client testing; also built a Unity web-based SCORM-compliant training course integrating with a SCORM backend via JavaScript.”

“Built and shipped production LLM systems at Founderbay, including a low-latency voice agent and a graph-based multi-agent research assistant. Strong focus on reliability in real workflows—hybrid SERP + full-site scraping RAG, grounding guardrails, validation checkpoints, and transcript-driven evaluation—plus performance tuning with async FastAPI, Redis caching, and containerization. Also partnered with a non-technical ops lead to automate post-call follow-ups via call summarization, field extraction, and tool-triggered actions.”

“Unity gameplay engineer with hands-on experience building infinite procedural large-world terrain systems and solving floating-point precision problems in multiplayer scenarios where players can be widely dispersed. Has shipped/operated Photon-based multiplayer and also built custom server-authoritative networking with client-side prediction and reconciliation, including late-stage stabilization work fixing sync bugs that caused soft locks.”

“Unity/VR developer who shipped the Meta Quest game "ARCADE PARADISE," contributing features, resolving long-standing bugs, optimizing performance, and documenting internal build/setup workflows.
