\personalinfo{}

\begin{introduction}
        I'm a software developer with 10+ years of professional experience. My main expertise is \cvemph{the C programming language} in \cvemph{Linux}, using multithreading and inter-process communication, in particular for the broadcast industry. In all these years I have also worked a lot with \cvemph{Perl}, \cvemph{Bash}, and \cvemph{Python}. Previously, I had worked with \cvemph{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 \cvemph{React}, \cvemph{C\#}, \cvemph{Java}, and \cvemph{Android}.

        I started learning and programming in \cvemph{C} in 2007, and my curiosity about the inner workings of the computer lead me to learn the basics of \cvemph{x86 assembly language}. Then in 2008 I started using \cvemph{GNU+Linux}, and I've been using \cvemph{Slackware} since 2009.
\end{introduction}

\begin{experience}
        \timeitem{2011}{Present}{\cvhref{https://3way.com.ar/en/}{3Way Solutions}}{Senior Software Developer}
        {I design and develop systems for the broadcast industry. I use \cvemph{C} to program systems for \cvemph{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 \cvemph{Perl}, \cvemph{Bash}, and \cvemph{Python} to write small scripts or programs, and sometimes I improve our web application using \cvemph{React} and \cvemph{JavaScript}. In relation with the broadcast industry, I work with specifications such as \cvemph{MPEG-TS}, \cvemph{ISDB-T}, \cvemph{ATSC}, \cvemph{HLS}, \cvemph{H.264}, \cvemph{AAC}, \cvemph{SDI}, \cvemph{ASI}, and so on.

        I developed a library to demux \cvemph{MPEG Transport-Stream} and to decode some codecs. I made a clipping software to cut a video without re-encoding, taking advantage of the \cvemph{GOP}. I integrate hardware to our product implementing the device API, such as \cvemph{AJA}, \cvemph{Blackmagic}, \cvemph{DekTec}, \cvemph{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 \cvemph{SRT} code in the \cvemph{FFmpeg} library, adding functionality to \cvemph{yt-dlp}\footnote{\href{https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/commit/0d531c35eca4c2eb36e160530a7a333edbc727cc}{https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/commit/0d531c35eca4c2eb36e160530a7a333edbc727cc}}, and improving the \cvemph{TBS} driver.\footnote{\href{https://github.com/tbsdtv/linux\_media/commit/98fa0e79a07a2f4b869eda147a8c52967d1edc51}{https://github.com/tbsdtv/linux\_media/commit/98fa0e79a07a2f4b869eda147a8c52967d1edc51}}

        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 \cvemph{NAB Show} in 2024.\footnote{National Association of Broadcasters trade show, held in Las Vegas --- \href{https://nabshow.com/2024/}{https://nabshow.com/2024/}}}

        \timeitem{2023}{Present}{\cvhref{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 \cvemph{Siemens PLC} that wasn't working well. I added functionalities to an \cvemph{Android} application written in \cvemph{Java} and fixed bugs in a \cvemph{React Native} application. I worked in backend adding endpoints to a \cvemph{C\#} application. And I also worked in frontend developing in \cvemph{React}.}

        \timeitem{2020}{2022}{\cvhref{https://www.baeldung.com/}{Baeldung}}{Linux Technical Writer}
        {I wrote several technical articles about \cvemph{Linux} and \cvemph{Bash}.\footnote{Articles I wrote at Baeldung --- \href{https://www.baeldung.com/linux/author/nicolasdato/}{https://www.baeldung.com/linux/author/nicolasdato/}} In this experience I improved my writting skills and also my technical knowladge.}

        \timeitem{2009}{2011}{\cvhref{https://www.consultoriaglobal.com.ar/cgweb/?lang=en}{Consultor\'{\i}a Global}}{Ssr Java Developer}
        {I developed several web applications for financial institutions, using \cvemph{Java} and frameworks such as \cvemph{JSP}, \cvemph{Hibernate}, \cvemph{Spring}. I also worked in frontend using \cvemph{HTML}, \cvemph{JavaScript}, and \cvemph{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 \cvemph{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.}

I almost exclusively use and work on \cvemph{Linux}.

        Once a year, I volunteer in a local proyect called \cvemph{Todos al Agua}\footnote{Todos al Agua (Everyone into the Water) --- \href{https://www.instagram.com/todosalagua/}{https://www.instagram.com/todosalagua/}}, 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.
