Gustavo Guimaraes is a game-focused software engineer and educator with 12 years of experience building and supporting online services for AAA titles and teaching game development across NYU, Pratt, and The New School. He blends backend systems experience from Microsoft, 343 Industries, and The Coalition—where he worked on matchmaking, load testing, and launch support for Gears 5—with hands-on game production as Lead Game Developer and organizer of play-focused events in New York. He designs playful learning experiences, having taught both introductory programming and graduate-level game design, and brings an artist’s sensibility from his MFA in Game and Interactive Media Design. Known for making life more playful, he organizes jams, curations, coworking days and shows that bridge community, craft, and engineering. Quietly eclectic, he pairs rigorous engineering skills with a joie-de-vivre that informs both his teaching and community work.
