Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRoger Braunstein is a Principal Engineer with 13+ years of experience building games, interactive experiences, and high-performance mobile apps across web, desktop, and consoles. He combines deep hands-on implementation—from Unity/C# platform optimizations to native iOS/Android extensions—with product-level architecture and team leadership, having led development from associate roles to head of development and running his own agency. Roger’s work balances elegance and simplicity with measurable performance, earning creative-industry recognition (ADC, Cannes Lions, FWA, CommArts, One Show) for client-facing projects. Recently he’s focused on bringing machine learning, computer vision, and NLP into novel user experiences, blending technical rigor with playful design. Equally comfortable shipping polished games for Nintendo Switch as rebuilding legacy mobile titles for scale, he’s known for pragmatic build-versus-buy decisions and long-term client trust. Outside code he channels visual sensibilities into photography, animation, and design—skills that inform his UX-driven engineering.
