Summary
Caterina Lázaro is a Development Engineer and seasoned Android developer with 10 years of experience building mobile applications for online marketplaces, healthcare, and embedded wearable systems. She holds a Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from Illinois Institute of Technology and has blended academic research with production engineering—most notably developing an Android-based artificial pancreas app with Bluetooth LE communications, native C components, and secure server integration. At Vivid Seats she improved usability and engagement through scalable Android architecture and gamification, while streamlining interactions with React Native modules and CI/CD pipelines. She brings deep expertise in Java/Kotlin, embedded platforms (Raspberry Pi, Arduino), and converting research algorithms into maintainable native code for clinical and consumer devices. Based in Madrid, Caterina pairs rigorous research instincts with practical product delivery, and has a track record of leading cross-disciplinary teams from prototype to deployed systems. An often overlooked strength is her experience translating MATLAB control algorithms into production-grade native code—bridging the gap between control theory and mobile deployment.
