Vetted GitHub Professionals

“Unity/C# game developer who served as CEO and lead developer on the Unity 2D pixel RPG "Rum Runner's Revenge," owning technical direction, modular architecture, and core gameplay systems; the project earned a TIGA award nomination. Also shipped a commercial Unreal Engine title and built an adaptive difficulty system using player performance metrics, leveraging AI tools for rapid prototyping and debugging.”

“XR professional with 9 years in the industry and 3 years using Unity; built a solo Unity city-building/resource management game (BLEAK) inspired by Anno in a dystopian cyberpunk setting. Has shipped web-based XR experiences (not Unity headset titles) and emphasizes pragmatic scope control and production adaptability, honed further during time at Zappar.”

“Robotics software engineer from Bigbot who led localization and perception for an outdoor autonomous delivery robot, building ROS2/Nav2-based autonomy with EKF sensor fusion (IMU/odometry/GPS) and perception-driven dynamic costmaps. Experienced taking systems from Gazebo simulation to real-robot deployment, optimizing real-time behavior via logging-driven debugging and latency reduction, and integrating heterogeneous comms (MAVROS/MAVLink, UART/CAN, MQTT) for distributed and multi-robot setups.”

“Product manager from edTech focused on AI-driven, B2B HR training simulations (live work-scenario platforms). Demonstrated measurable funnel improvement by diagnosing a registration drop-off issue, coordinating a cross-functional fix (including Android), and delivering ahead of schedule, resulting in a 20% increase in sign-ons. Has shipped/managed products on web and mobile.”

“Frontend lead with ~6 years building edtech platforms (LMS + CMS) using Svelte and React/TypeScript. Manages a 6–7 person team and owns architecture, CI/CD, and production quality practices (error boundaries, crash/downtime alerting). Has hands-on experience improving performance at scale via micro-frontends, lazy loading/code splitting, and virtualization/pagination for heavy UI screens (e.g., Bonzo game platform).”

“Frontend engineer who led the Dash Merchant App and Backoffice platform (React/TypeScript/Redux) supporting $50M+ in monthly transactions. Focused on scalable architecture and reliability—introduced typed API layers, centralized error handling, and performance optimizations (including ~40% load-time reduction) while driving team adoption through incremental refactors, templates, and pairing.”

“Unity developer who has built a Meta Quest 3 VR game as a solo developer, handling everything from VR setup and UI to gameplay and builds, including accessibility-focused mechanics for blind users. Also developed the full base-system module for the shipped mobile game "Death Travelers," implementing 30+ rooms with distinct economy and progression functionality (resource conversion, storage, shop).”

“Built a LangGraph-based, tool-routing LLM chatbot to deliver fast, trustworthy investment-stock insights (including tariff impact) and deployed it to production on Snowflake after initially developing in Azure with AI Search and the Microsoft Agent Framework. Improved routing robustness by moving from LLM-based decisions to a deterministic router backed by schema-relationship graphs and YAML metadata, and ran the project iteratively with non-technical stakeholders over an 8-month engagement.”

“Frontend engineer who leads high-impact refactors and rebuilds end-to-end, including migrating a legacy Next.js frontend to React + Vite and consolidating fragmented styling into a single MUI Joy design system. Has deep experience improving performance and maintainability in complex, data-heavy UIs (orders/financial pages, multi-step editing flows) through modularization, query optimization, and shared context patterns, with strong QA discipline for sensitive financial actions.”

“Backend engineer with open-source web3.js contributions focused on preventing costly smart-contract execution failures, plus hands-on blockchain startup experience scaling an NFT mint from a test EC2 setup to AWS Lambda/API Gateway under extreme concurrency. Built a multiplayer backend improving tick rate from 40 Hz to 105 Hz using UDP, containerization, and Kubernetes, and has healthcare production support experience across 10+ apps. Also publishes IEEE research papers and produces developer-friendly documentation that accelerates team adoption.”

“Unity VR developer with hands-on experience shipping and optimizing standalone builds for Meta Quest (and PICO). Led gameplay + networking on a Quest 3 multiplayer social VR experience (real-time sync, avatars/gestures, proximity voice), and also built a mostly solo game that blends fast-paced restaurant simulation with a night-time horror/stealth loop featuring custom AI.”

“Game-focused QA tester with a developer background who routinely validates builds in player-like environments (including VMs), documents test coverage rigorously, and provides high-signal bug reports with reproducible steps and video evidence. Has partnered closely with designers and engineers on issues like level-loading resource management and prioritizes defects based on player progression and immersion impact; has not shipped a AAA title.”

“Built and owned an end-to-end Python/Postgres job-tracker backend that scrapes job postings (including LinkedIn) using Selenium-driven real-browser automation, with deduplication and data-quality filtering. Has practical experience migrating deployments from DigitalOcean to Vercel and emphasizes documentation, roadmapping, and testing as part of an iterative delivery cycle.”

“Backend engineer who built a production retrieval-augmented narrative analysis platform for 100-page screenplays using a Node/Express orchestrator and a Python/FastAPI AI engine, including a key redesign from disk-based uploads to in-memory streaming to eliminate Windows file-lock failures. Also led a refactor of a municipal vehicle tracking system into a C-based distributed engine handling 4M+ daily packets with 99.99% data integrity and automation that reduced manual ops by 50%.”

“Backend engineer with hands-on experience modernizing a real-time logistics/tracking platform from a tightly coupled polling architecture to a service-oriented/microservices design using Node.js and WebSockets. Emphasizes contract-first FastAPI development, defense-in-depth security (JWT/OAuth, RLS/Supabase), and safe incremental migrations with feature flags and strong observability, delivering sub-second updates and improved performance under peak load.”

“Backend/data engineer experienced building enterprise community-platform services for high-traffic global clients, using Python (FastAPI/Django) on Docker/Kubernetes with PostgreSQL/Redis. Has delivered AWS EKS + Terraform/CI-CD deployments with strong security practices (Secrets Manager/SSM, IAM/IRSA) and has hands-on ETL (AWS Glue), legacy modernization, and incident ownership with measurable performance gains (~30% faster queries).”

“Unity VR developer with 3 years of experience shipping games for Meta Quest, focused on gameplay event handling and animation control. Prefers structured production environments and on-site, 9-to-5 work; notes multiplayer development as a more challenging area.”

“Frontend engineer who has led end-to-end React + TypeScript initiatives, including a shared frontend module used across product lines/regions and an inventory discovery experience for large datasets. Strong in scalable architecture (feature-based, configuration-driven, role-aware components), design systems with Storybook, and performance/quality practices (profiling, CI/CD, automated testing, feature-flagged rollouts). Reported ~30% reduction in duplicate code after refactoring an existing React codebase.”
