As a seasoned Senior Game Developer and Gameplay Programmer, I bring a rich portfolio of expertise in Unreal Engine and Unity3D development, honed through a diverse career in the gaming industry.Previously, I was a Senior Game Developer at Nirah Studios AB, where I led a team of programmers in creating advanced AI systems, intricate inventory systems, and custom movement mechanics for various game terrains. My efforts were instrumental in securing significant investment funding for the studio. At Proxify, I further broadened my scope by introducing game development to the talent pool, conducting technical interviews, and helping land clients for the company.My time at Hyphonics Inc saw me single-handedly developing an interactive educational game demo in Unity3D, garnering media attention and investor funding. Earlier in my career, I designed and developed mobile games at Quill-Tech Group and worked on several game projects at X on Board in Beirut.
