Producing well-built, clearly understood systems in the course of relentless, real-world problem-solving has been my focus as a software engineer. I’ve programmed hardware to the metal, developed GNC code for SpaceX’s SuperHeavy booster, contributed 16 years of enhancements to Apple’s AppKit framework, implemented 3D game rendering and art pipelines, built advanced device drivers and a revolutionary HTML+WordPress editor for macOS, and helped app teams troubleshoot complex problems and build new features. I’ve been a conference speaker and mentor to other developers, have enjoyed working with amazing people, and welcome new challenges and opportunities.

Software EngineerFox Interactive / Page 44 Studios Nov 1998 - Jan 2000Primary 3D graphics programmer and tools pipeline developer for Fox Baseball for the Sony PlayStation. Completed the Radical PlayStation baseball title as Fox Baseball 2001, with a subset of the original art and engineering teams. Provided technical support and art pipeline tools to a team of six artists. Repaired and extended the Radical 3D library and tool set. Developed a graphical VRAM layout tool (using OpenStep Enterprise) to assist with managing texture placement templates. Coded special effects. Reimplemented the “instant replay” system to improve memory-efficiency. Revised the player model vertex transform code to reduce “jitters” caused by cumulative fixed-point errors in the original 3D library code. Coordinated evaluation of new technologies and art tools, including Nichimen Graphics’ Mirai and Alias|wavefront’s Maya. Fox closed its sports videogame division while we were in beta, and I departed Page 44 to pursue independent research.

Software EngineerRadical Entertainment, Ltd. Aug 1997 - Sep 1998Primary 3D graphics programmer and tools pipeline developer for ESPN Baseball for the Sony PlayStation. Developed the rendering code for the Sony PlayStation version of a PC/PlayStation baseball game, based on an in-house 3D engine that provides basic polygonal rendering and skeletal animation of seamless mesh characters. Implemented realtime retexturing of player meshes, runtime IK/attachment mirroring for handedness, viewspace LOD selection, and a priority allocation system for managing limited main memory and texture VRAM resources. Implemented subdivision rendering to alleviate texture warping. Developed the art build pipeline and custom tools atop an existing art-processing tool base. Worked closely with ten artists and one art director to ensure technical compliance of game art and provide support for in-house tools, including a 3DS Max2 exporter and standalone model viewer. Was offered a lead position to follow this project, but Radical Vancouver ran out of funds and closed its San Francisco office in September ’98.
