Summary
Daniel Margarido is a Senior Tools Engineer with 11 years of software and cybersecurity experience, currently building developer tooling at Lockwood Publishing. He has a strong systems mindset informed by work across game development, operating systems, AI, and hands-on C++ development (and a pronounced dislike of JavaScript). His background spans applied cyber security roles and teaching at the university level, where he translated complex concepts into practical coursework on OS, programming, and AI. Comfortable moving between research and production, he combines deep low-level knowledge with tooling that helps teams ship faster. Based in the Greater Aveiro Area, he holds both a bachelor's and master's in Computer Software Engineering and brings an educator’s clarity to engineering problems. An interesting detail: he pairs applied offensive-security experience with tool-building for game-focused development pipelines.
