Experience

1. Game Mathematician

   Igt Playdigital

   Jun 2020 — Present

   I spent about three and a half years doing math validation and building a math validation team. As a validator I looked for exploits, regulatory issues, playability issues, and math errors. I hired and trained other mathematicians and organized our workflow. We checked maths and documents for 3 game studios and greatly improved the quality of delivered products.About a year ago I moved to a role in Game Design. I have been involved in interviewing, hiring, and training mathematicians on the Game Design team. I have been improving our design process and tools. Games I have worked on include: 7s Wild Gold, Cash Eruption Red Hot Joker, PowerBucks WOF Lucky Coins on Stage, Prosperity Pearl, WOF Lucky Coins on Stage, Kitty Glitter Grand, and PowerBucks Prosperity Link Blessings.
