Top SchoolSkyler Manzanares is a Senior Software Engineer II with 11 years of experience building server-side systems, tooling, and infrastructure for the games industry from Los Gatos, CA. He has deep expertise integrating platform services (authentication, purchasing, social features), patching systems, networking, and databases across proprietary engines and Unreal Engine 4/5. At Cryptic Studios he led console ports, modernized network security (including ECC), and revamped crash handling and patching performance, then continued advancing platform integrations at Manticore. Skyler combines hands-on systems engineering with a knack for operationalizing tools—improving observability, benchmarking, and resilient HTTP libraries—to keep live services healthy. He’s comfortable across the stack, from launcher and backend services to console platform backends, and has a track record of reviving and modernizing legacy systems. Practical, detail-oriented, and curious, he often surfaces subtle reliability gains that materially improve player experience.
