Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavid Barlia is a Lead Engineer specializing in Unity and VR with 14 years of experience building interactive experiences for games, advertising, and immersive exhibits from Pasadena, CA. He blends deep object-oriented gameplay and UI engineering with creative skills in filmmaking, music, animation and design, which he leverages to craft polished, story-driven user experiences. At Wildlife he led the Joker's Escape FanDome VR and built a touring US Air Force VR installation, and his independent HandsOnVR library explores realistic mass-based grab mechanics for hand controllers. His background spans mobile, console and headset platforms including PSVR, Rift and Oculus Go, and he's shipped music-driven gameplay systems, environmental audio tooling, and platform-agnostic control frameworks. Known for mentoring engineers and iterating with artists and designers, he’s equally comfortable optimizing shaders and particles for mobile as prototyping novel interaction concepts.
