About

Greetings! I'm Dylan Hunt. I craft online game experiences for socially-engaging PC games.

As a seasoned online multiplayer backend developer, I excel in the realm of SDK<>Integration for both PC games and game services. My expertise lies in creating engaging and social gaming experiences, complete with matchmaking, lobby systems, OAuth2 identity logins, and persistent data features such as stats and profile management.

Additionally, I have a strong background in developing robust moderation systems, automations, live DevOps tools, automated events, and cloud scripts, all while ensuring scalable architecture to support your game's growth. Bonus points if you are creating a strategy game - my favorite!
