Hi, I’m Alex, Unreal Engine generalist with 10+years of expertise.
I work across a wide range of Unreal Engine development areas — from its core C++ architecture, gameplay framework, and UI systems to networking, performance optimization, software architecture, and the creation of productivity tools, editor plugins, and third-party integrations.
I’m also passionate about R&D work and solving complex technical challenges that others usually often avoid.
Hiring me brings to your team passionate professional, reliable and friendly collegue.
