- Implement comprehensive monitoring and telemetry systems (e.g., Sentry/Crashlytics) to track application health and performance
- Optimize application performance through systematic profiling (CPU/GPU/memory), focusing on startup times, frame rates, and memory usage
- Design and build performance-critical SDK components using Rust and GDExt
- Contribute to the development process with improvements and suggestions, driving code quality throughout the production cycle
- Mentor other developers in best practices, actively participating in code reviews and pair programming
