“Unity lead developer who built a turn-based soccer game (Soccer Glory/Score Hero-like) with complex in-air ball simulation, AI reactions, and animation handling, then scaled production by creating an in-editor level/animation authoring tool that saves to JSON and shifted level setup from devs to designers. Strong multiplayer background across Photon PUN, Mirror, UNet, and Socket.IO, including a 100-user metaverse room and practical approaches to authoritative simulation and VR/mobile performance optimization (Meta Quest 90 FPS).”

“Built and productionized an LLM-powered customer support system using a RAG architecture with structured document ingestion, embedding retrieval, and prompt templates for product-specific grounding. Experienced diagnosing live agent/workflow failures (e.g., retrieval regressions after new docs) by refactoring ingestion/chunking and adding grounding constraints plus evaluation benchmarks. Also supports go-to-market by joining discovery calls, shaping MVP workflows into demos/prototypes, and creating post-launch documentation to drive adoption.”

“Full-stack engineer who shipped and owned a production Document Chat feature built with Next.js App Router/TypeScript and a Node/Express RAG backend, including JWT-secured route handlers and streaming responses. Demonstrated strong post-launch ownership by improving latency (~30%) via MongoDB indexing/query optimization and reducing AI costs through caching, backed by profiling with React Profiler and Chrome DevTools.”

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered incident response agent for a microservices platform, automating alert triage and safe remediation recommendations with strong guardrails (RAG grounding, structured JSON outputs, rule-based validation, and human-in-the-loop). Implemented state-machine orchestration (Redis/Kafka), comprehensive eval/monitoring, and an error categorization pipeline that cut hallucination errors ~40% and reduced MTTR ~30%.”
