As a Software Engineer for the Release team, my primary focus is helping to improve the quality of the Unity engine and ship multiple releases/versions of it. The releases and products I was accountable for include:- The manual and automated testing of both the core C++ pull requests of the Unity engine and C# for areas such as analytics, the rendering pipelines, Data-Oriented Tech Stack (DOTS), UI Toolkit, the Burst compiler and much more. - Programming and creating internal-only C# prototype dogfooding games and simulation projects in the Unity editor and runtime to validate and refine our products. - I also developed tools with Blazor, C#, SQL, and the Shiproom Report with Google BigQuery and Looker Studio to highlight relevant metrics for Unity’s engine quality. This demonstrated to stakeholders internally whether the engine was improving or regressing. - Furthermore, I engaged in contracts with Unity’s customers, such as Volvo and Ferrari, to help them review the performance of their product simulators and further develop relations with Unity accordingly.I am a prominent advocate for Unity’s strategy in the MENA region. For example:- I have led the effort with data-driven research and analytics to push Unity to improve support for localising right-to-left text in the editor and runtime. - I recently took part in delivering a presentation at a Unity Enterprise Developer conference in Abu Dhabi with a partnership with AD Gaming titled "Achieving high fidelity graphics on a budget".At this conference, I talked about operating within the constraints of a hardware performance budget by making solid software architectural decisions at the start of development. This is critical, especially when aiming to ship games and other products within the performance constraints of various platforms such as mobile, PC, consoles, and other NDA platforms.
