Top SchoolIoannis Boutsikas is a UI Engineer with over a decade of software experience and 7+ years focused on graphics and game-related systems, currently building UI at Oxide Games. He combines hands-on engine work (C++, Unreal, Unity/AR Foundation) with backend and cloud skills—having shipped an AR app for iOS/Android and a .NET Core API on Kubernetes. As a former PhD student and long-time teaching assistant, he’s comfortable mentoring others, explaining low-level kernel programming, and navigating large codebases. He also operates as a pragmatic systems developer and cloud architect for startups, maintaining servers, automating workflows with Chrome extensions, and delivering responsive web tooling.
