Summary
🤩
RockstarFederico Garcia Cruz is a C/C++ software engineer with six years of experience specializing in Windows filesystem drivers and backend security engineering. Based in Córdoba, Argentina, he contributes to large open-source security projects like Wazuh, where his refactors moved code toward safer patterns (smart pointers) and expanded dbsync functionality and schema design. He blends low-level systems programming with security-minded architecture, focusing on maintainability and robust resource management. Federico’s work shows a pragmatic eye for reducing technical debt while enabling new features in complex codebases. Colleagues would point to his steady contributions to CI-quality improvements and interface definition as evidence of disciplined, long-term thinking. He’s equally comfortable in driver internals as in backend modules that power unified XDR and SIEM platforms.
