Manatee Bingo

Project Overview

Manatee Bingo is a distributed electronic pull-tab system for the Florida market, under New Market Entertainment. I lead the product: Unity/C# client, cloud side (licensing, accounting, deploys), and field support. Secure SDLC is part of that work, not a separate project. GitHub Actions CI/CD where Semgrep findings block merges, and IaC using Terraform.
