UFC 4
EA Sports games are some of the first games I ever played, all the way back to the very first FIFA on the Sega Genesis. It was a dream to be able to work on those games someday.
The opportunity came as I joined Globant as C/C++ developer in late 2018, and got assigned to the UFC team as a software engineer dedicated to the Offline Game Modes back-end.
I worked directly with the people that made the games I've enjoyed for decades, and even got to work exclusively with the Online Game Modes team from EA Vancouver for a while.
Over the course of the project I estimated and took ownership of several features across the Online/Offline fronts, as well as some screens and front-end logic towards the end of the project.
Everything was done on EA's proprietary technology, which was hard to figure out at first, but became an incredible learning experience over the course of the development.
It was also a deeply enjoyable time, given the incredible team that I found on this project.
The game went on to top the sales charts and received good reviews from the press.
Shortly before release, I was moved to a different project within Globant, and eventually left the company altogether. Nonetheless, this experience remains one of the highlights of my career.
