• Develop core gameplay mechanics for football/soccer games, including but not limited to: • Football rule systems (offside / foul / referee logic). • AI player design (tactical positioning / team coordination / dynamic decision-making). • Physics-driven animation systems (collision response / motion fusion / inertial control). • Player animation state machine design (dribbling / shooting / tackling animation blending). • Lead end-to-end implementation of technical solutions, from prototyping to performance optimization. • Solve cross-module technical challenges (animation-physics synchronization, network consistency, etc.). • Write high-quality C++ code and establish technical standards for gameplay modules.

• Lead Core Match Gameplay Design • Design and iterate key gameplay systems including passing mechanics, shooting systems, dribbling and skill moves, defending and tackling, physical interactions • Continuously improve the game feel, responsiveness, and competitive depth • Player Behavior & AI Systems: Lead the design and tuning of player positioning and spatial awareness, offensive and defensive decision making, tactical execution, dynamic formation transition • Match Balance & Pacing: Responsible for the overall match experience balancing offensive and defensive pacing, skill success rates, player attribute impact, and match fairness • Cross-Team Collaboration: Work closely with Gameplay Engineers, Animators, Technical Artists, Data Analysts to improve animation startup and transitions, input responsiveness, ball physics, and overall match realism • Competitive Research: Continuously study real-world football tactics, competitive football games (EA FC / eFootball), and high-level player game behaviors and translate those insights into implementable game systems

• Craft and execute high-end real-time lighting for cinematic sequences in Unreal Engine 5 with minimal oversight. • Use color theory and composition to establish the emotional tone of a scene based on color scripts and concept art. • Independently improve lighting setups, inventing novel solutions for shots to ensure visual continuity across sequences. • Fine-tune light properties, surface shaders, and post-process volumes (bloom, fog, color grading) to achieve gold-standard visuals. • Navigate a shot-based pipeline to deliver high-quality work within tight production deadlines. • Work seamlessly within the client’s internal pipeline, maintaining clear communication and a solution-oriented mindset. • Ensure lighting setups are optimized for real-time performance without sacrificing visual fidelity.

• Develop mobile games for a music industry startup • Collaborate with cross-functional teams • Focus on retention loops, streak mechanics, and reward systems • Ensure user engagement and return for more
