Mohammad Aldehayat

I'm a software engineer with more than five years of experience in C#/.NET and C++, from test automation for semiconductor labs to a game played by millions.

Most of my work has happened where software meets something else: hardware, a game, or someone else's field. At Infineon, I built tools that chip verification engineers rely on every day. At Rababa Games, I brought a mobile game to PlayStation 4 and wrote the native code that connected it to steering wheels. In between, I built my own game engine, because I wanted to know how every part of it works.

What ties it together is that I like understanding what people actually need, whether they are engineers, players or researchers, and turning it into software that is clean, reliable and easy to build on. I'm now finishing a master's degree in Game Studies and Engineering, researching how games can be made more accessible to deaf and hard-of-hearing players.

Before all that, I came from competitive programming: I placed 4th and 5th at the Jordanian Collegiate Programming Contest, finished 55th of 2,600 teams at IEEE Xtreme, and mentored more than 200 students through contests and workshops.
