• Proven track record hunting down elusive bugs and profiling performance in large codebases using standard tools (such as RenderDoc, Pix, Unreal Insights, or NSight)

• Comfort operating in an environment where solutions aren't always pre-defined. You enjoy rolling up your sleeves, taking broad objectives, and figuring out the answers proactively
