Jacob Keane is a Lead Programmer with 16 years of experience specializing in C#, Unity3D, and cross-platform VR, mobile, and PC development. He has shipped projects for indie studios and major brands including Disney, Lexus and Unilever, and has commercial VR experience across HTC Vive, Oculus, GearVR and mobile cardboard platforms. Comfortable across the stack, Jacob pairs gameplay and graphics programming (OpenGL/DirectX/GLSL/HLSL) with backend work in ASP.NET, PHP/Laravel and MySQL, and mobile builds via Xamarin. His recent roles include VR development at SUPERHOT and leading engineering at Robot Turtle, alongside an active freelance practice that surfaces diverse client work.
