• Led the team responsible for porting Call of Duty Modern Warfare, Cold War and Vanguard to the Steam platform. Coordinated with the development team to ensure the game met Activision/Blizzard technical requirements, managed the technical aspects of the project, provided guidance to team members and implemented some of the systems myself. Successfully delivered the game on schedule, overcoming technical challenges and improving performance.• Led a team responsible for optimizing Back4Blood, resulting in a 40% increase in-game performance and improved user experience. Analyzed the game’s performance, identified areas for improvement, and implemented optimizations to improve game performance. Worked closely with Turtle Rock’s development team to ensure the optimizations were successfully integrated into the game. Successfully delivered the optimized version of the game ready for the launch (Zero-Day Patch). Platforms: PS4, PS5, Xbox One X and Xbox Series X/S.• Created an Engineering team to tackle the development of an Unreal Plugin to handle Online Services implemented on the game Zorya the Celestial Sisters.

Professor giving lectures on introductory and advanced courses of computer graphics.- Introductory course focuses on fundamental concepts and techniques, and their cross-cutting relationship to multiple problem domains in graphics (rendering, animation, geometry, imaging). Topics include: sampling, aliasing, interpolation, rasterization, geometric transformations, parameterization, visibility, compositing, filtering, convolution, curves & surfaces, geometric data structures, subdivision, meshing, spatial hierarchies, ray tracing, radiometry, reflectance, light fields, geometric optics, importance sampling, camera models, high-performance ray tracing, differential equations, time integration, numerical differentiation, physically-based animation, optimization, numerical linear algebra, inverse kinematics, Fourier methods, data fitting and example-based synthesis.- Advanced course focuses on the practical application of the fundamentals, adding the use of DirectX and OpenGL, as well as programming on their respective shader languages HLSL / GLSL. This course also dives on the concepts of deferred rendering, physicaly based illumination, subsurface scattering, rasterization and game graphics pipelines.The course includes the creation of a full fledged current generation graphics engine.

My role required the creation of an engineering team to develop multiple mobile and casino games.Architect in multiple of the core systems that now drive the company.Documentation, training and management of the engineering team.Responsible for the selection on the adquisition and merging of a third party studio.Programmer on multiple mobile and casino games and in-house systems.

Responsible for the creation of a core team to start a new game-tech centric development studio built to provide in-site game development support to other game companies.As Tech Director, my team was involved on projects for studios such as EA Maxis and Sony Interactive Entertainment's San Diego Studio.As a developer I played a generalist role architecturing, building and supporting our in-house game engine as well as on some projects for our clients.Some of the projects I worked here were:Sony Interactive Entertainment - Visual Arts Support Group San DiegoMy team and I were responsible for the creation of an HD Facial Rig Animation library and companion Maya Plugin to be used by various of Sony's internal game studios, both throughout the creation pipeline as well as in-game engine. The solution was implemented both in GPU with OpenCL's Compute Shader and via software with OpenMP to increase hardware compatibility, using a Compressed Sparse Row matrix (CSR) to reduce data size and using a custom solver to reduce computational overhead.
