About Me

Hi there! I'm a Software Engineer with 4+ years of experience.

Currently working as Robotics Simulation Engineer at Unreal Empowerment, helping to simulate the (yet) Unreal!

Always looking for new awesome technical challenges, eager to learn new things and do meaningful work that impacts positively in our world. I love to learn new stuff, understand how complex systems work, and transform theoretical ideas into real things. Translated into my work, I love all aspects of complex systems design and implementation.

From coding low-level C routines, to solving high-level problems using the most suitable data structures and algorithms, I find exciting each and everyone of the layers.
