Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolGareth Lewin is a seasoned systems-level C++ engineer with 11+ years of professional experience and a deep roots in game development, having led systems and gameplay engineering on high-profile titles at Electronic Arts. He later transitioned to large-scale platform and safety engineering at Twitch (now part of Amazon) where he founded Trust & Safety product efforts, built the first DL-based proactive detection systems, and scaled Community Health into multiple teams. At SunPower he acted as a senior technical fellow driving a modernization from a Salesforce-centric stack to a modern engineering platform while mentoring ICs, and he currently works on privacy engineering at Meta. Gareth combines low-level performance and SDK expertise (embedded streaming SDKs, real-time pipelines) with product-minded architecture for detection and moderation systems. An early-career game coder who shipped titles across consoles and PC, he brings a rare blend of gameplay systems thinking and production-grade backend reliability to privacy and safety challenges.
