\personalinfo{}
\begin{introduction}
I'm a software developer with 10+ years of professional experience. My main expertise is \emph{the C programming language} in \emph{Linux}, using multithreading and inter-process communication, in particular for the broadcast industry. In all these years I have also worked a lot with \emph{Perl}, \emph{Bash}, and \emph{Python}. Previously, I had worked with \emph{Java} for 2 years for financial institutions.
With my experience I can learn, understand, and work any task or problem as needed. I enjoy studing bugs and solving problems even when I don't have much experience in that topic. To accomplish this, I learn new languages, frameworks, or libraries as needed. For instance, I have also worked with \emph{React}, \emph{C\#}, \emph{Java}, and \emph{Android}.
I started learning and programming in \emph{C} in 2007, and my curiosity about the inner workings of the computer lead me to learn the basics of \emph{x86 assembly language}. Then in 2008 I started using \emph{GNU+Linux}, and I've been using \emph{Slackware} since 2009.
\end{introduction}
\begin{experience}
\timeitem{2011}{Present}{\href{https://3way.com.ar/en/}{3Way Solutions}}{Senior Software Developer}
{I design and develop systems for the broadcast industry. I use \emph{C} to program systems for \emph{Linux}, developing software and libraries to receive multimedia content, and then decode, analyze, encode, store, and transmit it. I work with TV signals (analog and digital), radio signals, and OTT content. For instance, we develop products such as a multiviewer, a video logging, a video clipping, an IP decoder, etc.
I make multithreading software that comunicates with external devices and runs 24/7 non-stop. I also work with \emph{Perl}, \emph{Bash}, and \emph{Python} to write small scripts or programs, and sometimes I improve our web application using \emph{React} and \emph{JavaScript}. In relation with the broadcast industry, I work with specifications such as \emph{MPEG-TS}, \emph{ISDB-T}, \emph{ATSC}, \emph{HLS}, \emph{H.264}, \emph{AAC}, \emph{SDI}, \emph{ASI}, and so on.
I developed a library to demux \emph{MPEG Transport-Stream} and to decode some codecs. I made a clipping software to cut a video without re-encoding, taking advantage of the \emph{GOP}. I integrate hardware to our product implementing the device API, such as \emph{\href{https://www.aja.com/}{AJA}}, \emph{\href{https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/}{Blackmagic}}, \emph{\href{https://www.dektec.com/}{DekTec}}, \emph{\href{https://hauppauge.com/}{Hauppauge}}, and more. Usually I need to read and lear new specifications to include new features to our product.
In several occations, I fixed and improved external projects such as improving the \emph{SRT} code in the \emph{FFmpeg} library, \href{https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/commit/0d531c35eca4c2eb36e160530a7a333edbc727cc}{adding functionality to \emph{yt-dlp}}, and \href{https://github.com/tbsdtv/linux\_media/commit/98fa0e79a07a2f4b869eda147a8c52967d1edc51}{improving the \emph{TBS} driver}.
In the year 2021 I went to Mexico to show our products to the goverment, as they needed to buy a system to monitor the TV and radio. I also participated in the \href{https://nabshow.com/2024/}{\emph{NAB Show} in 2024}.\footnote{National Association of Broadcasters trade show, held in Las Vegas}}
\timeitem{2023}{Present}{\href{https://it.borealtech.com/en/}{Boreal IT}}{Freelancer}
{I work as a freelancer, solving bugs or developing new features as they request me. In this position I'm constantly learning new skills, as I work on all king of different proyects.
My strength is that I can addapt to any project and finish the task, even if I don't have experience. I reviewed and found an issue with a \emph{Siemens PLC} that wasn't working well. I added functionalities to an \emph{Android} application written in \emph{Java} and fixed bugs in a \emph{React Native} application. I worked in backend adding endpoints to a \emph{C\#} application. And I also worked in frontend developing in \emph{React}.}
\timeitem{2020}{2022}{\href{https://www.baeldung.com}{Baeldung}}{Linux Technical Writer}
{\href{https://www.baeldung.com/linux/author/nicolasdato}{I wrote several technical articles} about \emph{Linux} and \emph{Bash}. In this experience I improved my writting skills and also my technical knowladge.}
\timeitem{2009}{2011}{\href{https://www.consultoriaglobal.com.ar/cgweb/?lang=en}{Consultor\'{\i}a Global}}{Ssr Java Developer}
{I developed several web applications for financial institutions, using \emph{Java} and frameworks such as \emph{JSP}, \emph{Hibernate}, \emph{Spring}. I also worked in frontend using \emph{HTML}, \emph{JavaScript}, and \emph{CSS}.
In the beginning, they assigned me to projects that were already started before I joined the company. As my experience and skills improved, I started new projects designing web applications from scratch.
As the empoyer knew I had a background in \emph{C}, they requested me to fixed a program written in C by another company. I had to review the code and fixed the problem, which was related to the migration from 32 to 64 bits and incorrect usage of pointers.}
\end{experience}
\begin{education}
\timeitem{2016}{2022}{Universidad Nacional del Sur}{Computer Science}
{50\% of the career.
When I moved to another city, I continued the \emph{computer science} career at \emph{UNS} until I halted it due to lack of time. I intend to continue this career in the future.}
\timeitem{2011}{2014}{Universidad de Buenos Aires}{Computer Science}
{30\% of the career.
After secondary school I started \emph{computer science} at \emph{UBA}. Then in 2014 I moved to another city and I priorized my professional career.}

\begin{extra}
In my spare time I contribute to \emph{\href{https://www.openstreetmap.org/}{OpenStreetMap}} and \emph{Wikipedia}. Also in 2009, 2011, and 2012 I participated in the \emph{\href{https://flisol.info/}{FLISoL}}\footnote{Festival Latinoamericano de Instalaci\'on de Software Libre (Latin American Free Software Install Fest)} as an installer. I almost exclusively use and work on \emph{Linux}.
Once a year, I volunteer in a local proyect called \emph{Todos al Agua}\footnote{Everyone into the Water}, where we teach how to swim to kids from low income families. I love swimming, and I participate in a local tournament. In the summer I practice open water swimming.
