Ritesh Varma is a seasoned tools and engine engineer with over a decade of experience building the invisible infrastructure that makes modern games run—build systems, CI, crash reporting and developer-facing tools. As Co-Founder of Superluminal he’s focused on reimagining performance profilers for C/C++, Rust and .NET across Windows, Xbox and PlayStation, emphasizing visual, intuitive UIs over spreadsheet-style data. His background includes foundational tools work on Guerrilla’s Decima engine and leadership of engine & toolset development at Vanguard, where he shipped multiple cross-platform titles and built automated build servers, crash-analysis pipelines and stability dashboards. Strong in C++, C# and systems design, he combines deep technical problem solving with clear cross-discipline communication and product-oriented thinking. An active open-source contributor, he improved cross-platform build and camera calibration support for the popular psmoveapi project, showing his attention to build quality and maintainability. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic architect who focuses on developer workflows and the small, high-impact systems that keep studios productive.
