I build games and simulations in Unity and C#, from controls and progression to release and live support. I owned the Coloring activity in PAW Patrol: The Game at Originator (Spin Master), design through its July 2026 worldwide iOS and Android release. I was the studio's technical escalation point, and built a child-safe LLM story experience with generative voice. I then built and shipped GamePrompt, which turns a description into a Godot build and verifies each one compiles and runs. Earlier I published up to 100 mobile games with 20M+ downloads, led client architecture on a server-authoritative casino suite, and architected a VR training simulator for airport ground crews.

Experience

  1. Founder / Principal Engineer · GamePrompt

    2026 - Present

    Built and launched a generative-AI product that takes a game from a conversational description to a complete, playable Godot build. Live in production.

    • Built the agentic harness the product runs on: multi-model LLM routing across Anthropic and OpenAI by task and cost, an MCP server driving a headless Godot build toolchain, and prompt and context pipelines held in git and deployed through CI, so a prompt change is reviewed and versioned like any other commit.
    • Built the evaluation layer: every generated project must compile and run before it ships, so correctness is verified automatically rather than reviewed by hand.
    • Instrumented per-model token spend and metered it into customer billing.
    • Own the full stack and its operation: TypeScript/Next.js services on Firebase, Cloudflare R2 and Workers, Stripe webhooks with idempotent retry handling, authenticated access using HMAC-signed session cookies, and per-tenant authorization rules covered by automated tests.

  2. Principal Game Developer · Originator Inc (Spin Master Inc)

    2023 - Jul 2026

    Technical escalation point for the studio; reviewed and mentored other engineers. Studio closed July 2026.

    • Engineered an AI-driven story experience in which children create, narrate and illustrate personalized stories using LLM integration and ElevenLabs generative voice.
    • Built the content-safety guardrails constraining model output for a child audience, validated by two independent red teams that were unable to elicit inappropriate content.
    • Owned architecture and implementation of the Coloring activity in PAW Patrol: The Game, from design through worldwide iOS and Android release in July 2026.

  4. Senior Unity Developer · MaxSpot Media

    2018 - 2021

    Led client architecture and wrote most of the code for a cross-platform casino suite (poker, blackjack, slots).

    • Built turn resolution, hand state and server-authoritative rules across iOS, Android and WebGL.
    • Integrated WebSocket and REST services, Photon multiplayer, microservices and third-party plugins.
    • Led code review and delivery coordination across engineering, QA and production, and owned the multi-platform build and release pipeline.

  5. Unity Developer · Velocity Airport Solutions

    2015 - 2018
    • Architected a full-stack VR training platform for airport ground personnel: instructor station, hardware-in-the-loop integration and a synchronized mobile companion app over Photon Realtime.
    • Built for non-engineer operators to run unaided.
