PixelWidget

Senior Producer · Creative Systems Operator

I turn ambitious ideas into real products, systems, and experiences.

I work where production, product, creative, and technology overlap. Sometimes that means leading a team. Sometimes it means getting into the tools and figuring out how to make the thing work.

How it happens

Process

How the work actually happens, from the first conversation to what we do after launch.

01

Understand the idea

Before tickets, estimates, or tools, I want to understand the thing we're actually trying to make and why someone should care about it.

02

Find the holes

What's unknown? What's expensive? What are we assuming? What could turn into a problem six weeks from now?

03

Find the right path

People, frameworks, tools, references, old projects, weird CodePens. I like the hunt for the combination that makes an idea possible.

04

Build the risky part

If something might not work, I'd rather find out with a prototype than after a month of meetings.

05

Get everyone moving together

Design, engineering, art, QA, stakeholders. Production works when everyone understands what we're making, what's changing, and what needs to happen next.

06

Ship it and keep looking

Launch isn't the end. Watch what happens, fix what hurts, polish what matters, and make the next version better.

Track record

Experience

I started in QA in 2005. Since then I've worked across mobile games, live products, branded worlds, web experiences, commerce, and the systems behind all of them.

Senior Producer · Builder-operator

Christian Perez

I started in QA and moved into production because I wanted to understand why some bugs never got fixed.

Start with wonder. Finish with systems. PixelWidget is the studio home for that work.
