Top SchoolJakir Hussain is a Senior Mobile Engineer at Epic Games with nine years of experience building high-performance Unity applications and release systems for live games like Fortnite and Fall Guys. He blends hands-on C# and engine-level work with leadership—having led SDET teams, owned release engineering, negotiated vendor contracts that saved studios significant costs, and mentored engineers. Jakir is an active open-source maintainer (Scriptable Framework, SpeckleUnity and SpeckleUnreal) and is building a mobile app to showcase real-time streaming integration between game engines and the AEC-focused Speckle platform. His background ranges from performance-critical 3D analysis and VR/AR tools to CI/CD automation, proving he can move between research-grade prototypes and production pipelines. Comfortable shipping features, hardening matchmaking and automating end-to-end tests, he’s equally at home optimizing shaders or negotiating cross-discipline roadmaps. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic engineering, clear documentation, and tooling that makes complex workflows repeatable.
