Building the next generation of game engines with a focus on dramatically improving ease of use & portability, with the full collaborative creation toolset on any device.As the founder I started working on Sceneri since its conception phase to successful VC fundraising, scale up and launch. I direct development and the long term technical roadmap.Focused on next-generation graphics APIs such as Vulkan, Metal and WebGPU, with full support for iOS, visionOS, Android, Web, macOS and Windows.

Unreal Engine 4 game and engine development for several indie to AAA companies working on established franchises as well as new IPs for studios such as Turtle Rock, 2K Games and more.

I aided Slightly Mad Studios in developing Project Cars: GO, the first mobile entry in the Project Cars series.

Responsibilities:* Continuously diagnose User and Developer experience issues, and present short and long term solutions* Direct on-going development and plans of of the Experience team, focusing on improving the engine's usability* Identify problematic areas with internal services and provide solutions for unifying both public and internal workflows* Work with Engine and Editor development teams to improve the product as a whole and plan future developments improving overall user experience* Work with technical teams to improve source code interfaces exposed to users to match that of competitors* Identify issues relating to the product present in web services such as documentation, API references and the marketplace* Work with business to diagnose and integrate potential new revenue streams on a technical level

I work on the core engine team for CRYENGINE, working to improving all areas of the engine in order to push towards a unified, easy to use system that is fully integrated. On the engine team I took charge of C# development while still working with C++ daily, and focus heavily on improving the game development experience by finding trouble areas from the start of a user's journey to the end. This involves seeing how all the various systems work together, and how users tie these together to create a fully fledged game.I accomplished many things:* Rework of the entity system and an entirely new property system* Complete rewrite of the C# integration (both C++ and C# sides) to provide a more user friendly API in line with .NET coding standards* A large set of video tutorials for getting started with CRYENGINE game programming in C++ and C#* Full restructure / rewrite and planning of the technical documentation for CRYENGINE* Completely new game templates allowing users to get started with the engine using C++ and C# without having to write the basics on their own

I worked as Technical Director and co-founder on SNOW, a free-to-play open world skiing and snowboarding title made with CRYENGINE for PC and PlayStation 4. I served as the first software engineer on the team, and have managed the development of all systems from start of development to the current released version.I recruited, taught and managed a team of five programmers and provided plans and support for the entire company. My role included:* Roadmap planning, including the integration of third-party tools and updates to services such as CRYENGINE.* Support for technical and non-technical developers for development and organizational purposes* Authoring and oversight of documentation for development and company workflow* Development of major features for the game and extensions for the game engine* Integration of third-party software such as DeltaDNA, In-game Advertising, HTTP Inventory Backend and more* Continuous research on possible improvements of company and development workflow, including usage of JIRA, Agile, Documentation, Git and more.

Working as lead programmer; managing a team of up to four programmers. (C++, Lua and C#)During my time as Programmer at Ink Studios I created CryMono, a plug-in for CryENGINE allowing game development on the .NET/Mono platform, source code is public and can be viewed at https://github.com/PoppermostProductions/CryMono. I also worked on the Toolbox application, a custom editor for CryENGINE aimed towards being as intuitive as possible, whilst being fully expandable by the end-user. This custom editor took a different stance to UI development, utilizing the lightning fast multi-threaded rendering API of the game engine itself instead of relying on a secondary solution such as Qt or MFC. This had the benefit of the editor always running on any platform that the engine itself could run on.
