“Early-stage founder building an engineering alpha product and planning a structured path to pilot and general availability. Active mentor in TechStars and MassChallenge with a strong VC network, emphasizing PMF, MVP-in-market feedback, and early sales while maintaining a sustainable approach to entrepreneurship.”

“Unity/C# game engineer with about 3 years of experience who owned a high-impact runtime content delivery platform at Zynga/Singa powering LiveOps releases for roughly two years. Their work cut app size by 35-40%, removed a 25K daily activator drop on release days, improved load times by 25%, and supported a feature that drove 10% quarterly revenue growth.”

“Game developer with experience on DreamCraft and KartRider Rush+, focused on Unity/C# gameplay systems, AI behavior, and multiplayer synchronization. Stands out for building a modular character customization system shared across teams and for tuning AI karts to feel more human while supporting different player skill levels.”

Executive engineering and AI leader specializing in healthcare AI and startup scaling

Los Angeles, CA21y exp

“Engineering leader who has built teams and products from scratch in both healthcare AI and consumer tech. Most notably, they grew Thrive AI Health’s engineering org from 0 to 20 and led delivery of a multimodal, multi-agent AI health coach—including a real-time voice experience piloted with Eli Lilly—while previously scaling Sweetgreen’s mobile ordering platform into a major revenue channel.”

“Video editor with 15+ years of experience across major NLEs (Premiere, Final Cut, DaVinci, Sony Vegas) and a strong focus on longform YouTube retention through pacing, audio, and recurring hooks. Produced end-to-end, graphic-heavy weekly content for the Ditto Music Channel (self-filmed/edited/narrated/scripted), contributing to a library of 30–40 videos reaching ~5K–200K views each.”

“QA/automation engineer with experience at Riot Games’ player platform, owning E2E automation for mission-critical authentication/account flows using Playwright/JavaScript plus API automation. Built CI merge gates and nightly verification with Slack reporting, and repeatedly caught backend-driven session/authorization regressions before production. Known for stabilizing flaky UI tests via selector strategy and network intercepts, and for influencing design early with testability hooks and telemetry.”

“UE5 UI engineer who built a production-ready, modular training/procedure framework with editor tooling so curriculum designers and technical trainers could author content without Unreal expertise. Deep hands-on ownership across C++/Slate/UMG/CommonUI, including MVVM architecture, cross-platform input/navigation, and rigorous UI profiling/debug tooling that can be stripped from shipping builds.”
