About

What I do

I build production software systems. The work falls into three rough categories:

• AI systems & live platforms. Multi-agent architectures, LLM-driven persistent NPCs, real-time multiplayer backends. Zombita, Soup, Relay.
• Experiential installations. Unity software powering physical interactive experiences, VR rides, hardware-rigged installations, multi-screen activations. Deployed at retail venues, sponsorship events, branded activations.
• Game projects. Solo-authored games, narrative platformers, point-and-click adventures. Smaller in scope than the system work, but a meaningful part of how I think about interactive experience.

How I work

Most of my commercial installation work has been delivered through InteractXP, where I'm Director and Lead Developer. The AI systems work (Zombita, Soup, Relay) is solo, built outside the company.

I do not make art. I source it (asset packs, commissioned work), and I direct it. The strongest claim I make on this portfolio is the engineering: systems, architecture, integration, full-stack ownership.

Where I'm going

I'm in the Canadian Express Entry pool and intend to relocate to Canada in the next 6–18 months. As a tech worker I qualify for Canada's Global Talent Stream, which means a Canadian employer can have me on the ground within about four weeks if needed. I'm available to start remotely while a work permit is arranged.

I'm also pursuing PhD research in multi-agent narrative systems and information reliability. That's a separate body of work, documented at ritwiksharma-phd.pages.dev.

Reach out

The fastest way to get me is email. I respond quickly and I'm happy to walk through any of the projects on this site in detail, including ones I haven't put on the public portfolio.
