Patrick Alexander

Game developer who builds things solo, gets them stable, and keeps iterating until they feel right. 3+ years working in Unity (C#) and Unreal Engine 5 across gameplay systems, VR hand-tracking, and AR mobile prototypes. Independently developed a full UE5 game from scratch as a thesis project, graded A. Led QA across 10+ titles delivered with zero critical issues at event launch.

Comfortable owning problems regardless of scope, learning fast in unfamiliar territory, and contributing to a team that cares about the quality of what it builds. Looking to grow inside a studio where quality and craft matter as much as the deadline.
