Hi! I’m Austin Van Braeckel

These days I’m a Software Engineer at Magnet Forensics. I love tackling cool problems, trying out new tech, and building sleek, usable UIs.

I even made my own game!

Transient is a 2D platformer I made from scratch in Java. It isn’t easy, but you can play it right here in your browser.

Besides my role on the Nexus team, I did three co-op terms during school, at NCR and at Magnet Forensics, and I wrote about each one. See the full timeline
