Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolArnau Prat is a Senior Programmer based in Barcelona with 12 years of experience specializing in computer architecture, high-performance computing, and game-engine tooling. He blends deep research pedigree—a PhD in graph analytics and years contributing to LDBC benchmarks—with hands-on systems work in C/C++ and Vulkan, recently focusing on resource pipelines at IO Interactive. Arnau led Sparksee’s evolution into an AI-enabled embedded graph database, delivering multicore I/O partitioning, bulk-loading APIs, memory-reuse strategies, OpenCypher compilation, and Python3 bindings. He has shipped cross-platform on-device recommendation systems (Linux, macOS, Android, iOS) and created a Flutter plugin to expose native graph capabilities. Currently on a sabbatical-turned-indie-project, he’s building a custom C+Vulkan engine that minimizes libraries and favors custom allocators and handle-based ownership for maximal performance. His profile uniquely combines academic rigor, production-grade database architecture, and low-level game-engine craftsmanship.
