I'm an experienced Software Engineer and Leader with 13+ years of industry experience. Much of my experience includes being an Engineering Manager, but I'm also very hands on, mostly on the backend using Ruby on Rails and Java. I have a lot of experience integrating and scaling 3rd party APIs into backend systems.

I come with a lot of domain expertise in CRM, specifically integrating with Salesforce. I'm willing to explore new domains as well.

I'm looking for interesting engineering roles or leadership positions. I'm flexible with in person and remote roles.

I've been writing software (and designing UIs and user experiences) for about 15 years. My early career was design-heavy, and these days I largely focus on software.

I'd love to find work in environmental technologies, but my interests are very broad and deep; I'll enjoy working on many kinds of projects. I'm fascinated by all varieties of problems and love solving them with smart, skilled people I can learn from and support. Mentoring is a great role for me.

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.

Location: Orem, UT, USA Remote: Yes Willing to relocate: No Technologies: Technical writing, Knowledge management, XML, DocSys, HTML, Markdown, bash, PowerShell, SQL Résumé/CV: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/vou9f9gwqzvn8rmjf7seq/Steve_F...

You need a Technical Writer. You have developers that have trained extensively to talk to computers often in multiple languages. And it is hard enough to write documentation for other developers. Asking them to create documentation talking to users, system administrators, DevOps and management are even more dialects because they speak in their own jargon, and it costs a lot of their very expensive time. I know technology, hardware, software, firmware and more. In tech, medical, aerospace, automotive and IT industries. I can do the translating for developers so they can concentrate on making the hard stuff. I also know user experience (UX) I can guide you to make better user interfaces and keep you from making those mistakes that cripple many products.
