Fortnite

In 2023, I worked as a freelance Senior UI Programmer for Epic Games on Fortnite. I contributed to the redesign and implementation of the New Locker system, using cutting-edge, unreleased Unreal Engine 5 features. It was exciting to work on such a massive game and use features that weren't even publicly available yet.

I optimized Blueprints and C++ code, learned the new MVVM framework for UMG in UE5, and helped fix bugs across the team for the release. Working with unreleased features was challenging (limited docs!) but very rewarding. I learned a lot and got to see how Epic works internally.
