Alberto Salieto :: Portfolio Website

Welcome & Introduction

Hola! Welcome to my portfolio

Hi there! I'm Alberto, gamedev and programmer since 2010. I studied and specialized in the creation of videogames and digital content in Multimedia Engineering at the University of Alicante. Currently I work in Barcelona as senior client engineer & team lead, developing, managing and releasing projects with enthusiasm, learning something new every day and improving myself.

What I do?

I currently work on gameplay features, user interface, external tools and more, but my specialities are prototyping, gameplay and tools programming in Unity. I really enjoy team and project management and currently I'm taking lead responsabilities as management, feature ownership, workflows, release proceses & deploy monitoring, roadmap plannings and product improvements.

On my free times I like to develop and publish my own games (publishing as Chincheta Games) just for fun, and participate in Jams and Ludum Dare with teammates. I'm also interested on VR development.

What I do?

Here are some of my skills

Unity

For +8 years I've been working on Unity, both prototyping from scratch and in large projects supporting live ops.

Team management

For the past few years I took management responsabilities, been involved in teams and leading them (and I really like it), assigning and dividing tasks and making sure the product roadmap is technically correct and viable on the given schedule.

Agile methodology

I use SCRUM methodology (as faithfully as possible), planning scopes and milestones, grooming tasks, etc.

Communication

I'm used to communicate directly with the client or other departments (art, design, VFX, tech art) to understand the user or designer requirements, make a plan and deliver useful and quality code and tools.

Apart from my main skills, I have experience on many languages, software and environments.

Programming:

C#, C++, OpenGL, Javascript, shaders, SQL...
Experience with AWS and backend: dynamoDB, ElasticBeanstalk, S3, postman...
Virtual Reality: Oculus Quest, SamsungGearVR
Web programming: HTML, CSS, PHP and a few CMS
Many well-known third-party plugins

Design and art:

3D: Blender, 3D StudioMax
2D: Photoshop, Illustrator, Figma

A mix of things that I daily work with:

Git + Sourcetree, Github, Bitbucket
JIRA, Trello, Confluence, Miro
Platform IDEs: Rider, xCode, VisualStudio
External Unity tools, SDKs and utilities: Jenkins, Dotween, OdinInspector, ADMob, UnityAds, GameAnalytics, GooglePlayGames, iCloud services...

Open to learn:

Unreal Engine, Godot, Vive
