Context

XR: the short version

XR (short for Extended Reality) is the umbrella term for any technology that blends the digital and physical worlds. It comes in three flavors.

🥽
VR
Virtual Reality

A fully digital environment you step into; the real world disappears.

Real exampleCareXR on Meta Quest, putting patients inside an interactive 3D environment before a procedure.

📲
AR
Augmented Reality

Digital content layered over the real world; your surroundings stay visible.

Real exampleCybersecurity tools on HoloLens, overlaying threat data and investigation guides on top of a real room.

🌐
MR
Mixed Reality

Digital objects that understand and respond to physical space; they don't just sit on top, they belong.

Real exampleThe Virtual Twin on HoloLens 2: a virtual engine on a real factory floor, streaming live sensor data.

The headsets change. The underlying challenge of making digital information feel like part of the real world stays the same. That's what I build.

About

The engineer behind the work.

I'm Chris — a senior software engineer with 8+ years building enterprise software, immersive XR platforms, and collaboration tooling. My deepest expertise is in Unity and XR, but the work has never stopped there: solution architecture, hands-on development, R&D, roadmap planning — and I'm not afraid to take on unfamiliar technical challenges when the job calls for it.

I founded a regional XR practice at a Fortune 500 company and grew it from a solo effort into a 9-person team of engineers and designers, evaluating and de-risking emerging technology for 6+ Fortune 500 clients — every engagement delivered on time. I also led development on CareXR at Bioflight VR — a medical VR platform deployed across two US hospital systems and live on the Apple App Store.

I'm looking for my next challenge — ideally in XR, game development, or real-time 3D, at a studio that values craft and ships. Sports tech is a genuine interest (golf, soccer, games aren't just resume filler — they're the hobbies), but the work itself matters more than the vertical. Open to IC and leadership roles.

Experience

Where I've done the work.

Feb 2019 – March 2026
DXC Technology
New Orleans, LA / Remote
Senior Software Engineer / Lead Software Engineer — Global Offering Engineering & XR Delivery
  • Founded DXC's New Orleans Extended Reality capability and grew it from a solo practice into a 9-person cross-functional team of engineers and designers, serving as Lead Developer, Solutions Architect, and pre-sales SME across every engagement.
  • Led XR proof-of-concept and pilot programs for 6+ Fortune 500 clients, validating emerging technology against real operational problems and giving stakeholders the evidence to commit or walk away — 100% on-time delivery across concurrent projects.
  • Partnered with Microsoft and Meta through early-access and private-preview programs to evaluate and productize pre-release enterprise XR tooling, including Microsoft Mesh, Microsoft Guides, and Microsoft Remote Assist.
  • Directed solution architecture across all engagements — producing high-level technical plans, translating ambiguous client challenges into scoped XR solutions, and aligning execution with stakeholder vision and milestones.
  • Drove pre-sales discovery and technical scoping, turning open-ended client problems into defined, fundable engagements.
  • Built a net-new MTR device monitoring platform from scratch in Power Apps / Power Automate, giving centralized visibility into Smart Working Spaces hardware deployments; integrated third-party platforms (Appspace, Cyviz Easy Monitoring) to expand the offering's technical footprint.
  • Developed PowerShell automation that eliminated recurring manual processes for the M365 capability, and owned capability roadmaps with leadership — defining scope, priorities, and delivery milestones.

Microsoft HoloLens 2
Virtual Twin Demo

A smart factory proof of concept that bridges mixed reality and live IoT data. Used Azure Remote Rendering for high-fidelity 3D assets and pulled real-time temperature and vibration telemetry from Azure IoT Hub — letting users visualize engine sensor data spatially and control the physical engine through the virtual interface.

Delivered at DXC Technology
Microsoft HoloLens 2
Crime Scene Investigation

A mixed reality proof of concept for the HoloLens 2 exploring how law enforcement and CSI units can use spatial computing to enhance real-world workflows and build more effective training scenarios.

On the side

Currently building.

Two web apps I've been building on the side for a while now. Both in active development.

Education · AI
IEP Assist

An AI drafting assistant for special education teachers. Takes IEPs from blank page to a strong first draft so teachers can spend their time on the parts that actually need a human.

Soccer · Operations
Project Touchline

An operations layer for grassroots soccer clubs. Rosters, schedules, social, and match-day logistics in one place, with AI that drafts posts and recaps in the club's voice.
