Delilah Pavoni - Maker of Interactive Things and Playful Experiences

Game/XR/Unity Developer | Creative Technologist | Interactive Installations | Designing and Crafting Playful Experiences

HELLO!

I'm Delilah. I bring ideas to life through Games 🎮, Play, Interactive Installations, and Software Development.

With a mix of creativity, technical know-how, expertise and leadership, I turn ideas into something people can touch, play with, and enjoy.

My tools of choice for creating games and interactive experiences are currently C# and Unity, but I have used a number of different engines/languages/tech to make magic happen ✨

VR is my soft spot since 2006, when I first got to use it. Talk XR to me, I got stories to tell!

I like (statically) typed languages and particle systems. I juggled more languages than I can remember.

Currently obsessed with plants, cats, pizza and shaders 🌐✨

Based in Amsterdam, NL

WHAT I DO

With a tech background, I often find myself programming, but I'm just as involved in the creative process. I enjoy wholesome projects with a purpose. And spooky things.

I build experiences and help shaping them - be it games, products, interactive software or installations, AR/VR, taking it from scratch to final polishing.

I collaborate closely with designers, teams and stakeholders to translate ideas into testable prototypes fast, and bridge tech and design.

Some of my tasks are:

Gameplay & interaction systems (mostly Unity/C#)
Experiment with several technologies for the perfect match
Hardware/CV integrations for installations
Team leadership, onboarding, mentoring, and process
Collaborate in the creative process: brainstorming, ideation, storytelling
Prototyping sprints to de‑risk concepts
Implementing and designing core, game mechanics and/or interactive features
Implement design / UI / audio / tooling
Work with third-party APIs
Help define project requirements and estimate timelines

A task I never did? It's ok, give me some time, I'll figure it out.

I like GIT, I use tickets and I can roll spaghetti very fast.

I do also value and keep learning about communication, leadership, diversity and how to best support people around me. I advocate for inclusivity and embracing a wide range of perspectives and backgrounds.

I empower my teams by fostering open collaboration, leading by example, ensuring everyone’s voice is heard, and giving credit where it’s due.

Clear communication and transparency are key. I bring my experience in remote workflows to ensure the team stays aligned, helping set up efficient pipelines and communication practices that keep everyone on the same page, whether we’re in the same room or across the globe.
