Software Enginner currently based in Nice, working as a Back-end C++ Developer. In the lookout an opportunity to challenge myself in an exciting and fulfilling company, where I can work together with a talented, and passionate team to create and learn.

Coding is what makes me happy!

Who is Luiz

Having lived in multiple countries, I learned to adapt myself to new situations, as well as being comfortable meeting new people and working as a team. Since I was a kid I had a passion for math and problem solving, which lead me to study Economics Science back in my homeland.

As I grew as a professional, I understood that what I loved more than analyzing data was actually developing solutions and projects, which led me to follow my dream to become a Developer and join New University of Lisbon's Computer Engineer program.

As In my final year, I got the oportunity to work in a telecomunications start-up, as a full-stack developer, where I worked integrating a Crowdsource DB into the final application, as well as developed new features for the end product.

Then got the opportunity to work as a developer in Nice, France, where I fulfilled a dream to live in the country of my other nationality and continue to develop my technical skills working with a large legacy codebase in C++.

I am accountable for the technical design and delivery of product functionalities, working closely with stakeholders such as Customers, Product Management, and Product Definition Analysts.

I am currently looking for an opportunity to challenge myself in an exciting and fulfilling company, where I can work together with a talented, and passionate team to create and learn.

My Projects

Twitter Miner

See More
Upon receiving a specific Twitters user '@', this programm fetches the users tweets timeline and saves it to a .JSON formatted file, that is than handkled by Tweepy to a Cursos object.

Twitter limits the amount of tweets that can be downloaded per 15 minutes. Thus, when an exception is raised (i.e., the maximum allowed number of tweets has been reached) the script will wait for the time needed and then resume the analyzes.

This project was developed by me during my first year as a Computer Engineer Student (2019), with the intention of learning more about different Python Libraries, as well as working with a robust API and frontend development.

The frontend was developed using Javascript, HTML5 and Bootstrap Framework, and integrated with the script with Pythons Flask Library.

All the possible analytics and detailed explanation can be found on the README file. Visit the repository to see more!

Sorting Visualized

See More
This application compares four different types of well-known sorting algorithms: BubbleSort, InsertionSort, SelectionSort, and QuickSort.

The objective is to show, step by step, what the code is doing by simulating a random set of elements, each with its own value.

The user can choose the desired algorithm and see, in real-time, the process of position swapping that the code does in the background.

Built with JavaScript, WEBGL, and CSS.

All the possible functions and detailed explanation can be found on the README file. Visit the repository to see more!

Pixelate

See More
Pixelate is an image Transformation and Creation Algorithm coded in C completely based on pixel alteration.

Using the encoder / decoder written by Lode Vandevenne, this application receives PNG images from the user and converts them into pixel arrays.
Through the manipulation of RGB tones and the position of pixels in the matrix, Pixelate transforms the initial image, applying photo filters, special effects and also drawing color patterns from outside, with the help of models and mathematical algorithms.

The user manual and detailed explanition of the algorithms and structures can be accessed on the README file on Git Hub.

My main goal with this project was to have contact with the integration off external libraries, such as the Lode Vandevenne decoder, and have deep contact withC main libraries, aswell as contact with math computacional models, such as the Bresenham's line algorithm.

The possible next step for this project is to develope a more userfriendly GUI, in addition to more filters.
