Summary
Tomaz Saraiva is a Lead Developer and educator blending over a decade of hands-on software and XR experience with a background in psychology to build VR/AR, mobile and web products that target real human needs. He has designed and shipped more than ten VR environments for mental health research—work that contributed to dozens of scientific publications—and now leads XR projects in industrial and training contexts. Equally at home writing Unity architecture as he is lecturing C#, statistics or behavioral competences, Tomaz has taught university courses and run workshops for eight-plus years. He pairs product-focused engineering (mobile apps, WebGL optimization, and multi-game platform architectures) with a practical research ethos, often bridging R&D and development teams via custom Unity tools. Based in Lisbon, he brings a rare mix of clinical insight, game/serious-games masters training, and proven delivery across startups and academia.
