Video Game Software Engineer specialized in Software Architecture and with PS4 experience currently looking for new opportunities

I’m a french optimistic software engineer really curious that loves learning new things and understanding how things work! I like creating the correct tools for my colleagues : if I can make effortless the creation of the game, I’m happy! Software Architecture is one of my favourite subject : easier code evolution and easier comprehension of what things do is something I aim every day. I learned how to make video game by myself by making side projects while at my engineering school, and I found a way to transform the different school project I had to do into video game projects.

I think a good developer is someone passionate and creative, who has a team spirit, produce code that is maintenable, upgradable, i.e. a comprehensive and readable code. Anyone can learn a programming language, but to know how to get back on something that has been produced to improve it, make a software component “beautiful”, suggest an architecture to reach some properties expressing the pros and cons and decide together if it’s the right solution, it’s all of these things which allows to say “I am an Engineer”.

I worked on the narrative game “11-11 : Memories Retold” at Digixart Entertainment as a Developper. I had the chance to work as an Audio Programmer, a DevOps, a Tool Programmer and a Gameplay Programmer. I also was the PS4 guy, implementing the different TRCs and using PS4 tools to profile and find what to optimize to have a correct quality on console.

I’m crazy about escape rooms, I can easily do 6 rooms in on week-end sometimes. I escaped 50 times so far, with 2 records and a 2nd place at the national event Redbull’s “Mission : Unlock Enoch” with my team. I also love comic books (X-Men and the Vaillant Universe <3), Science-Fiction and Heroic-Fantasy in all the media (movies, books, mangas, series, …).

I’m now looking for new opportunities! Feels free to contact me at : dallagnol.tom@gmail.com.
