PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Unity Developer | PLAYSTUDIOS (acquired Pixode Games in 2024)
Jul 2024 – Oct 2026 · Ukraine
Tetris® Block Party: F2P mobile puzzle game with social mechanics and live events, iOS/Android, 120k+ DAU after
global launch, built by a large cross-functional team.
• Delivered features end to end (remote config and economy setup, UI, analytics, localization); contributed to larger
multi-developer features such as in-app offers and mini-games, including variants for A/B tests.
• Developed core gameplay logic as part of the team (item spawning with persistent state, new piece types, in-session
challenges) and prototyped new mechanics.
• Traced player-reported issues, production crashes and freezes to their root causes using Firebase Crashlytics and
devtodev, and shipped fixes, including protection against cheating and workarounds for third-party SDK bugs.
• Reviewed teammates’ pull requests, refactored legacy code, estimated tasks and wrote technical documentation; built
QA tools to speed up feature testing.
• Extended the onboarding (FTUE) system with new scripted tutorials and migrated existing players’ progress and data
from legacy implementations.
• Shipped features as remote content (Addressables, AssetBundles) that could be updated or targeted at player
segments without a new build; contributed to memory, loading-time and build-size optimizations.
• Took part in migrating ad mediation to AppLovin MAX (10+ network adapters) and made the rewarded and interstitial
ad flows more reliable.
• Built UI screens, popups and in-game visual feedback, integrating animations and audio.
• Worked daily with tech art, product, economy, QA and LiveOps to take features from spec to release, and resolved
integration issues directly with SDK vendors’ support and engineering teams.
