About Me

Hi, I'm Alejandro. I am a Gameplay Programmer based in Castellón, Spain. My journey started with creating simple games in Scratch, and now I'm shipping weekly builds for complex multiplayer prototypes.

I have experience porting titles like 'Sea Horizon' to PS4, PS5, and Xbox. I am driven by mastering emerging technologies and writing clean, maintainable code. I've improved QA turnaround times by 95% and boosted frame rates by 15% through optimization.
