TL;DR

I’m César, a computer scientist, software engineer, and content creator.

I’m passionate about science, software technology, and education.

Here is my résumé.

Update: Since April 2023, I’m a Data Engineer at SEB in Stockholm :sweden:.

Career

I’d a PhD in Computer Science at KTH Royal Institute of Technology. My PhD was supervised by Benoit Baudry and Martin Monperrus. I graduated in 2023.1

Cool Fact: KTH is ranked 74 globally according to the QS Ranking.

My PhD was about software debloating,2 here’s my thesis and public defense.

I enjoy doing knowledge-seeking software engineering research. For example, to extract useful information from software repositories.3 Particularly, I’m interested in measuring the impact and pervasiveness of software bloat across large-scale software ecosystems.

I’m keen to perform research on software technology which:

  1. Provide actionable insights to researchers and practitioners about how modern software is currently being developed and maintained.
  2. Produce practical tools for developers to improve software quality.
  3. Disrupt the status quo of software engineering latest practices.

I’m open to collaborate with researchers and give advice to students in these areas. If you are interested in working with me, please have a look at my list of research topics and send me an email.

I also hold a BSc and MSc in Computer Science.

A long time ago, I participated in programming competitions.

Misc

Out of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, reading physical books, and running across the Stockholm’s beautiful parks.4
