About

🎮 Crafting Scalable, Player-Loved Titles with AI & Game Engines From QA to Engineering Head, I’ve spent 11+ years shaping award-winning games that captivate players. My journey spans testing India’s top-grossing titles having over 100 million downloads to leading teams that deliver polished, high-scale experiences dominating markets. 🚀 At Games24x7, I evolved from Game Tester to Full Stack Engineer, contributing to casual games dominating markets and building systems to handle over 400K DAU. At Bombay Play, I worked on Block Heads (Play Store’s Top Indie Game 2023), crafted monetization engines, optimized gameplay, and slashed load times by 70%. 🔧 I’ve architected level generation tools, art integration systems, and performance pipelines that accelerated game delivery by orders of magnitude—empowering teams to ship smarter and faster. 🧠 Tech Arsenal: Unity · Unreal Engine · Cocos Creator · LibGDX · AR/VR · C# · Java · TypeScript · SQL · Spring Boot · REST APIs · WebSockets · ECS · 3D Math · Git + AI/ML Edge: TensorFlow · PyTorch · OpenCV · Prompt Engineering · Game-Aware LLM Tooling · Predictive Systems 🧭 What drives me: - Turning complex ideas into shippable, scalable systems - Elevating teams through mentorship, reviews, and process optimization - Fusing AI with gameplay to unlock new levels of creativity and personalization - Leading with empathy, action, and a “let’s build something epic” mindset Let’s build the next big thing in gaming.
