Location: Denmark (US citizen)

Remote: Yes with timezone flexibility

Willing to relocate: Yes

Technologies:

Various languages but mostly Python and Go these days and starting to really enjoy Elixir. Also scripting languages, of course. The major relational databases like PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server, some very rusty DB2 skills and additionally Redis, Cassandra, MongoDB, Graphite and Elasticsearch. Performance testing and tuning, global scaling, CI/CD, IaC, Docker and Kubernetes, cloud tools, services and patterns (mostly AWS). All common operating systems, and some obscure/obsolete ones. Plus other things but I'm trying to hit the highlights. Most importantly lots of experience that helps identify designs and decisions that will come back to bite you, and ways to keep that from happening.

Résumé/CV:

2021-Present :: Self-Employed :: Consultant / Contractor

2011-2021 :: Lego :: Senior Infrastructure Engineer

Full document available upon request.

About:

I'm generally considered fun to work with but also a go-to person and happy to mentor colleagues. I've worked from start-ups to global companies, fully on-site to fully remote and am looking for new opportunities in just about anything. I'm open to unlimited and limited contracts, and full/part-time employment.

I am a recent graduate of Data Science with a strong software engineering background. My work experience is limited to less related fields (like Android app development, where I learned general processes in software development industry). Also, I spent quite some time introducing freshmen to programming pro bono (in person, YT videos, discord...) and helping with other courses where I could.

Since my primary interests are learning, teaching, acquiring data and turning it into knowledge, then providing it to others — jobs related to it are in my focus (Data Science, Data Engineering...), but I'm also open to software engineering jobs generally. If I could learn F77 for advent of code, i.e. just for fun, I bet your stack wouldn't be a problem at all :)

Available for Principal Unity UI-based App/Game Development, Gaming Backends, and UI/UX Design Opportunities – One-Man Army from Concept to Launch

I’m currently available for on-site/remote roles worldwide, as well as remote opportunities in Unity UI (uGUI, UI Toolkit) based App/Game Development, including gaming backends and UI/UX design. As a one-man army, I have a proven track record of taking projects from concept to launch across desktop, mobile, and web.

Here’s a summary of what I’ve been working on over the past 5 years: www.linkedin.com/posts/manofspirit_opentowork-activity-7237722209241214977-U3ZG

As a versatile designer and developer, I’ve created UI-based 2D games and applications with multiplayer features, ranging from XR-based Metaverse app WeDream to the NASBA-accredited educational app Earmark CPE, to Scrabble-inspired UGC-based Word Game, and even Ludo and Bonza-inspired puzzle games across various platforms.

Starting with GameSparks (RIP) in 2014, I’ve since worked with BrainCloud, PlayFab with Azure Scripting, Epic Online Services, and most recently started exploring Xsolla Backend (AcceleratXR). I’ve built fully integrated BAAS games and apps that often include async multiplayer, user-generated content (UGC), social integration (friends, messaging, etc.), tournaments, achievements, leaderboards, and monetization strategies (in-app purchases, subscriptions, virtual currencies, sales, ad mediation, etc.). Additionally, I’ve developed Unity-based admin tools for seamless management of users, content, and reporting.

On the UI/UX side, I started with Adobe Photoshop 8 and CorelDraw 9 almost 20 years ago; today I design beautiful applications and 2D games while utilizing my development skills to automate design tools for bulk art generation, variations, and solving repetitive tasks. I also leverage AI tools like MidJourney to push beyond creative limits.

Even though my focus is on the design and development of backend-driven Unity-based apps/games, my diverse skill set and ability to wear multiple hats allow me to seamlessly contribute to every stage of a project—from initial concept and UX design to backend integration, multiplayer systems, and final launch. This versatility enables me to adapt to different roles and challenges, delivering comprehensive solutions that align with the project’s goals.

If you have any openings that align with these diverse skills, I’d love to connect and explore how I can contribute.
