Summary
🤩
RockstarRyan Schmidt is an inventor and software leader with a decade of experience at the intersection of geometry processing, 3D design, and interactive tools, currently serving as Interim CEO of gradientspace. He created Meshmixer (acquired by Autodesk) and later led design and engineering efforts for geometry tools inside Unreal Engine, contributing to projects from Fortnite to the Matrix Awakens demo. A hands-on engineer and researcher, he builds core libraries such as the gradientspace/geometry3Sharp C# geometry toolkit and has repeatedly translated academic insight into production-quality mesh algorithms. He blends product leadership with deep technical craftsmanship—often implementing advanced data structures and refactoring core systems himself—and has taught and advised at the University of Toronto.
