Senior🎓
Top SchoolLucio Asnaghi is an engineering leader with 17 years of experience shaping game engines, audio DSP, and embedded systems, currently serving as Associate Tech Director for Engine/API at King in Barcelona. He bridges low-level C/C++ expertise (JUCE, Qt, Emscripten) with scripting in Python and Nim to deliver cross-platform desktop, mobile and web audio solutions. A long-time contributor to audio software — co-creator of the Renoise tracker-based DAW and former plugin developer at DiscoDSP — he brings deep signal-processing intuition to engine design. His open-source work includes substantive backend improvements to the widely used Mapnik mapping toolkit, where he enhanced SQLite datasource capabilities and WKB handling. Comfortable across tools, engines and GIS backends, he combines pragmatic architecture with hands-on implementation. Colleagues value his ability to turn complex multimedia requirements into performant, portable systems.
