Summary
Justin Gilman is a lead software engineer in Atlanta with over 12 years of hands-on experience and a 25-year trajectory of scaling remote teams and product delivery across games, SaaS, and enterprise web platforms. He combines game-engine and backend expertise—shipping leaderboard, shard management, and cross-platform auth for middleware at Pragma—with strong full‑stack chops from C# and C++ to Kotlin and modern web stacks. Justin has repeatedly rescued legacy systems through clean-code, TDD, and CI practices, and mentored engineering teams to adopt pair programming and test-first development. He’s delivered business-impacting features such as a measurement tool that doubled monthly sales at STACK and in-app ordering/fulfillment and GDPR/CCPA compliance services for game studios. Comfortable running small agencies or leading dozens of engineers, he blends product sensibility and operational rigor with a background in game design and systems administration. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic architecture that scales under real-world traffic and launch-day spikes.
