Improbable is the leading worldwide company in developing technologies for creating multi-user virtual 3D Worlds, Games, and Simulations, with a focus on the gaming industry. Improbable was the first company to put 10 thousand players in the same virtual world in a single session, breaking all the previous records of the industry, and I'm honoured to be part of it. At Improbable, I am the creator and lead developer of the 3D-Web-Experience, an Open Source 3D Game Engine for the browser capable of unprecedented results in rendering interactive multi-player 3D Worlds on a browser. I am also one of the core developers of the MML Language, an Open-Source programming language that allows developers to create interactive experiences networked from the ground up without ever worrying about networking or race conditions. By combining such technologies, I was the first person in the world to perform the live real-time development of an entire 3D Multiplayer Game so that other players inside the game could watch it and see the changes in real time. I know it sounds crazy, but you can check it out here in the full session recording, which more than 17 thousand people have already watched.

Room is a 3D social platform that enables people to interact through immersive experiences like we are all used to doing in reality. At Room, I had the great honor to be chosen by Cevat Yerli himself (founder and former CEO of Crytek, the company that revolutionized 3D Graphics Engineering and created some of the most advanced technologies and techniques the whole industry uses since then), and through my Tech Lead role working with technologies like WebGL, React, WebRTC, TensorFlow and many others, I've been leading and working together with some of the best 3D Engine engineers in the world, 3D artists, and designers, participating on the building process of one of the most unique 3D immersive experiences ever created in the communications industry.

SignStix is an award-winning innovative software company based in the U.K., specializing in delivering digital signage solutions globally. As Tech Lead and Head of Innovation, my work at SignStix allowed me to lead the development of all the company's solutions, including Back-End systems, Front-End applications, cutting-edge technology for Single Board Computers, IoT devices, and high-end screens with systems on a chip, guiding an incredibly talented development team to evolve daily.

Backed by a global team of incredibly experienced technologists and problem solvers, Clevertech is one of the world's most innovative solution providers in the Software Engineering Industry. Working for Clevertech I acted not only as a Senior Front-End Engineer but also as their Lead WebGL Developer, creating from scratch their first internal WebGL framework to empower React Developers with no advanced WebGL and mathematic knowledge to develop and deliver 3D Web Applications with top tier quality.

Hermes U.K. is the second-largest parcel carrier in the United Kingdom. Behind its solid brand, founded in 1972, there are over 15,500 highly trained employees. Working for Hermes U.K. technology labs as Senior Software Engineer and AWS Architect / Developer, I had the amazing opportunity to build (as lead developer) one of Hermes's A.I. driven tools, the IVR, using technologies like NodeJS, Amazon Lex, Amazon Lambda, Amazon Connect, Oracle Digital Assistant and Oracle Engagement Cloud. The IVR (Interactive Voice Response) is an AI-driven telephone answering system capable of advanced voice synthesis and speech recognition. It currently receives about 20 thousand calls every day, and solves 80% of Hermes's customers' requests, leaving only about 20% of the calls to be escalated to human call-center employees.

Acting as an autonomous consultant, Software Developer, and System Administrator, I provided totally customized solutions for my client's needs based on all the technologies that I'm experienced with within Software Engineering and high-level technical architecture planning.

Working at Machinima I've had the great opportunity to lead an extremely successful advertisement campaign for Sony, overachieving my contractor's expectations by helping them to internationally strengthen the Playstation brand and to gear up its community of consumers and content creators.

At this position, I was responsible for Community Management, Programming Management and Social Media Management, engaging, motivating and orchestrating three in-house teams and more than 60 of the most influential and respected local content creators. Together, we proudly achieved more than three hundreds of thousands of followers to the brand new social media profiles created exclusively for this project in less than 3 months of execution. Besides all the Marketing skill set required to accomplish this vast challenge, my Technology skill-set proved itself valuable and indispensable.
