About
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.
