Key skills & experience
A seasoned Technical Director, our candidate's industry experience in game development is both extensive and impressive. Primarily working with Electronic Arts (EA), he has spent years mastering the intricacies of delivering popular gaming titles like FIFA, primarily focusing on consoles such as Xbox, Wii, and Switch. He started as an individual contributor, utilizing his command over C++ for software development and seamlessly transitioned to leadership roles, managing to keep a hands-on approach throughout his career. His leadership skills have been demonstrated in various roles, notably as the Lead Software Engineer for Game Modes, where he accelerated the onboarding of a new remote studio and transitioned key features 18 months ahead of schedule. As the Technical Director of FIFA’s cinematics and story-telling new feature, he navigated a cross-disciplinary team of 60 professionals to deliver a game-changing experience using the Frostbite game engine. An additional significant highlight was his time with the FIFA E-Sports team, where he designed custom client/server environments for live E-Sports events. Despite a shift to the Web3 and Crypto domain, due to lack of AAA - Gaming domain opportunities at the time he moved back to Ireland, his enduring passion for gaming is steering him back to the industry.
