Founding AI Engineer · Active MVP Work
BARBAH Games
I help shape the engineering foundations for turning consented gameplay into useful, explainable player feedback and evidence for a longer-term Skills Passport direction.
My engineering contribution
My work sits where gameplay data, analytical systems, and player-facing experiences meet. I help define how a game interaction can become a trustworthy product input: capture the relevant evidence, process it consistently, derive a carefully scoped insight, and present that insight in a way a gamer can understand and challenge.
The aim is not to make broad claims about a person from one match. It is to build an evidence-led foundation for useful post-match feedback, longitudinal learning signals, and future Skills Passport features.
From gameplay to useful evidence
The engineering direction is a traceable chain rather than a black-box score. Each layer has a distinct responsibility, making the product easier to test, improve, and explain.
Reading the visual: the AI layer should explain approved evidence rather than inspect an unbounded gameplay history and make unsupported conclusions.
Engineering areas
Data foundations
Shape reliable paths from consented match or replay sources into structured, versioned data that can be reused across product features and evaluation.
Insight systems
Explore reproducible analytical and machine-learning approaches that identify useful patterns, progress signals, and opportunities for a next session.
Evidence and trust
Keep source evidence, confidence, scope, and limitations connected to every player-facing insight so feedback remains inspectable rather than opaque.
Product integration
Connect the data and AI layers to clear interfaces, so useful information reaches players without requiring them to interpret raw telemetry alone.
Skills Passport direction
BARBAH’s long-term direction is to let repeated gameplay evidence contribute to a portable record of progress and demonstrated game-context behaviours. My contribution is to help make that record technically credible: evidence should accumulate over time, remain traceable to its source, and state its confidence and limitations.
A gameplay-derived indicator is not an employment recommendation, personality judgement, or universal measure of skill. Any broader claim would require separate validation and a clear governance framework.
Public scope
This is active MVP work. I share the engineering direction and the standards I bring to the work, while keeping unreleased implementation, commercial planning, partner relationships, and private data workflows out of the public portfolio.
