Game/Engine Programmer

Hello!

I'm a developer currently working at Engine Software BV, I spend most my time doing low-level things like writing small engines and discovering new techniques to apply. However I've also created a few games, including ones in both Unity and Unreal Engine.

I've done two game dev studies, first one being at Game Development at Sint Lucas (MBO level 4) and the most recent one being IGAD / CMGT at NHTV Breda(or BUAS as they're called today) at HBO level (Bachelor).

Other than that I also like to play games that throw some challenges at me (like Dark Souls/Bloodborne/Factorio) or ones that can be played competitively, though I also enjoy RPG's such as The Witcher or Skyrim.

In the kinds of programming I enjoy most I mainly play with rendering API's, but anything low-level generally grabs my attention.

Programming Languages

C++ and C#

Engines

Unreal Engine 3,4,5 and Unity

Comments

My school-years largely involved Unity and Unreal(4), My work experience largely involved working on proprietary engines, fixing issues that occur upgrading C++ codebases and some legacy game bugs whilst porting, I also know my way around basic modeling including unwrapping, rigging and animating.
However I mostly enjoy working with C++ and whichever proprietary engine I'll have to deal with.
