Hand-picked to join a team tasked with making the next globally used software platform for IGT. The team focused on leveraging existing technology to rapidly construct a framework and SDK allowing content developers and engineers to more efficiently develop complex and feature-rich games. Pushed the team to utilize the third-party presentation engine Torque, which sped up the project timeline and provided a feature-rich tool for game development.
