  • Proven ability to build game bots and AI-driven agents to simulate complex player behavior and automate gameplay loops at scale.
  • Experience identifying system capacity limits and simulating high-concurrency environments for multiplayer games.
  • Expertise in backend-driven validation and simulating user behavior without a frontend/UI.

  • Experience designing debug menus, internal development tools, and reusable components for designers, artists, and engineers.
  • Knowledge of AWS (EC2, S3) for scaling bot instances and familiarity integrating frameworks with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins).
