Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJorge Ferrero is a Research Director and computer science engineer with over 12 years focused on computer graphics, game engines, and graphics tooling, currently leading R&D at Plain Concepts and co-developing the Evergine 3D engine. He co-founded Syderis and served as CTO, shipping multitouch, virtual try-on, and cross-platform frameworks, combining product-driven engineering with low-level graphics expertise. Jorge has hands-on experience across the graphics stack—shaders, mesh processing, post-processing—and contributed native C++ and C# integrations to Microsoft’s ShaderConductor, adding SPIR-V/DXIL compilation and Vulkan binding features. He also worked on pixel-art visual effects for Blasphemous 2, demonstrating an ability to bridge technical research and artistic implementation. Comfortable in both research and production contexts, he mentors teams to transform experimental ideas into industry-grade solutions. Based in Spain, he pairs supercomputing and parallelization experience from academia with startup and studio-level product delivery.
