Concrete Software is a professional mobile game development company producing high-end titles such as PBA Bowling and NHL Target Smash. When I joined in 2008, the company consisted of a team of six people. By staying agile and with a lot of hard work, we grew to 25 employees. I helped develop nearly 25 games and was the lead developer on 14. In addition to developing games, I also setup and managed our build systems, implemented the client and server code for a custom analytics system, developed an in-game advertising solution, created Mac OSX tools to define the vast amounts of data in our games, and worked in a team to implement push notifications, remote asset delivery, A|B tests, and more. I also grew into the role of Game Development Manager, which means that in addition to coding, I would also supervise, schedule, and train our developers on the games team as well as interview potential developers.
