Senior Technical Designer/Engineer specializing in Unreal Engine and AR/VR interactivity

Manchester, NH9y exp

“UE5 Blueprint-focused gameplay developer who shipped a VR rhythm title (Starwave), owning the player-facing star-hit interaction/feel and iterating heavily through playtests without dedicated QA. Also designed a modular tutorial/quest system by decomposing quests into reusable components so writers could assemble content independently, and has experience debugging Unreal Nav Mesh pathing issues that impacted gameplay and load times.”

Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in backend systems and workflow platforms

Sacramento, CA7y exp

“Full-stack engineer with strong React and Python backend depth who has owned complex analytical products end-to-end, from performant UIs to FastAPI services, SQLAlchemy data models, Redis caching, and production observability. Particularly compelling is their 0→1 automation work in the water systems domain, where they built Airflow- and LLM-powered workflows that reduced manual notification and correction work by 90%.”

“Unity game developer with hands-on experience improving platformer feel through playtest-driven movement tuning (e.g., coyote time) and building multiplayer features using Unity Netcode for GameObjects (authentication, lobbies, transport troubleshooting with UDP). Uses AI assistants pragmatically for repetitive code/architecture exploration while integrating changes manually to prevent regressions.”

“Founding engineer with strong end-to-end product delivery across IoT + mobile + serverless cloud: built firmware for a Bluetooth-connected device (ESP32), a native Swift iOS app, and an AWS serverless backend (API Gateway/Lambda/SQS/SNS/DynamoDB) including payments via Stripe. Also shipped a separate startup product in 6 months: a React visual tool that generated HTTP/REST APIs with a Django backend, admin panel, and a code-generating CLI.”

Stockton, CA2y exp

“Salesforce-focused engineer with hands-on depth across Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, Apex, LWC, and Aura. Stands out for owning end-to-end automation features, making thoughtful async architecture decisions to balance performance and reliability, and designing responsive Lightning interfaces that hold up under large data volumes.”

“Computer science-oriented builder developing an iOS receipt-splitting app for real users (roommates), focusing on login security, receipt history storage, and future web access for broader usability. Demonstrates a practical, customer-facing mindset with structured integration/debugging practices (Dockerized environments, incremental testing, rollback strategy) and prior experience in communication-heavy retail/bakery roles.”

Michelle Gurovith

Intern Software Engineer specializing in iOS (Swift/SwiftUI) and distributed systems

Danville, CA1y exp

“Built a fault-tolerant distributed IoT sensor network on Raspberry Pi using a token-ring protocol, implementing leader election, timeout-based failure detection, and dynamic reconfiguration when nodes drop mid-round. Focused on reliability and data integrity, including exactly-once processing semantics backed by a MySQL backend and socket-level instrumentation to debug real-time coordination issues.”

“Currently acts as a tech lead for a team of AI agents building a mobile application, with agents handling requirements, design, development, testing, documentation, and JIRA/Confluence updates. Stands out for combining multi-agent orchestration with strong human-in-the-loop review and a clear interest in AI governance and authorization controls.”

“Unity engineer with deep gameplay AI and multiplayer networking experience: built lethal, squad-coordinated NPC combat AI using behavior trees/blackboards, and re-architected a PvP title from Photon-style peer networking to a server-authoritative FishNet dedicated-server model with PlayFab matchmaking. Also integrated multiple open-source LLM pipelines (3D asset generation via Trellis, TTS, music) into dockerized, autoscaling cloud endpoints and shipped an iOS + visionOS/Vision Pro experience featuring BCI-driven input and on-device TensorFlow inference.”
