Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMarc Templin is a graphics engineering manager with nearly a decade of focused experience building tools, shader systems, and rendering teams that enable artists and designers to ship better games faster. He has led Shader Graph development and preview/async shader work inside Unity’s Graphics repo and later ran Rendering, Performance, Stability, and Client Security teams at Rec Room to dramatically cut crash rates and harden platforms. Comfortable toggling between hands-on engineering and people leadership, Marc excels at removing technical friction—shipping editor plugins, visual source-control integrations, and tooling that let non-programmers work confidently. His track record spans shipped titles from mobile hits to large-scale engine work, and he brings a rare combination of deep graphics/Unity expertise with product-minded team building. Based in Kirkland, WA, he is motivated by creating joyful developer workflows that translate directly into better player experiences.
