“Long-time Call of Duty mod/game-mode creator (Call of Duty Frontlines/Rio) who designed 40+ gametypes, including “Swarm” later released officially as MW3’s Team Defender. Known for deep tuning/balance iteration and for overcoming engine constraints (e.g., expanding limited model slots via load-time model merging to ship large amounts of new weapons/vehicles/enemies). Currently building an UE5 game (Comando Rio) on Lyra, implementing custom audio systems and camera/movement features, collaborating with Gooseman (Counter-Strike creator).”

“Backend/AI engineer with production experience in payments/reporting systems and high-scale Node/NestJS services on AWS (ECS/ALB) using PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka, Prisma, and Datadog.

“Built a production LLM-RAG system at McKesson to let internal healthcare operations teams query large volumes of unstructured operational documents via natural language with source-backed answers, designed with HIPAA/FHIR compliance in mind. Demonstrated strong production engineering across hallucination mitigation, retrieval quality tuning, and latency/scalability optimization, using LangChain/LangGraph and Airflow plus rigorous evaluation/monitoring practices.”

“Product-focused full-stack engineer (Spring Boot/Django + React/TypeScript) with deep experience building multi-tenant, enterprise workflow and supply-chain/order-tracking systems. Owned an end-to-end Workflow SLA Breach Prediction & Alerting feature integrating Azure ML for a cloud workflow platform used by ~10,000 enterprise users, and has hands-on AWS operations experience resolving real production latency/scaling incidents via query optimization and Redis caching.”

“Full-stack developer with strong cloud/on-prem focus (AWS, VPC networking) who has improved production reliability by bringing manually created IAM/security group resources under Terraform and standardizing environments. Demonstrated end-to-end troubleshooting across app + infrastructure + networking (traffic capture revealed proxy response truncation) and delivered Python-based monitoring/reporting enhancements that improved ops visibility and turnaround.”

“QA tester with a primary background in software/system testing who has supported console game testing on PS4 and Nintendo Switch, focusing on gameplay stability, UI behavior, save/load, and platform-mode performance differences.
