Introduction
I'am a Software Engineering PhD student trying to make Software Engineers life slightly better. I like thinking and solving problems from a high level of abstraction, but also fighting with new and legacy source code. Currently my research is focused on Software Product Line evolution and its integration with DevOps. If you are interested in those topics, check some of my work or contact me directly!

Implicit feedback is collecting information about software usage to understand
how and when the software is used. This research tackles implicit feedback in
Software Product Lines (SPLs). The need for platform-centric feedback makes
SPL feedback depart from one-off-application feedback in both the artefact to
be tracked (the platform vs the variant...
Context
Variant-Rich Systems (VRSs), such as Software Product Lines or variants created through clone & own, are created to satisfy different needs while reusing existing assets. The long lifespan of families of variants, and the scale of both the technical side (implementation size) and the organizational side (roles diversity) make their maintena...
Onboarding (i.e., the process of incorporating new people) is relevant because it introduces employees to their role, the company’s culture, and what the company has to offer. Onboarding is then dependent on the company’s culture and practices. When it comes to software development, these practices include the methods, the tools or the developers’...
Software Product Lines (SPLs) aim at systematically reusing software assets, and deriving products (a.k.a., variants) out of those assets. However, it is not always possible to handle SPL evolution directly through these reusable assets. Time-to-market pressure, expedited bug fixes, or product specifics lead to the evolution to first happen at the...
With a volatile labour and technological market,
onboarding is becoming increasingly important. The process
of incorporating a new developer, a.k.a. the newcomer, into a
software development team is reckoned to be lengthy, frustrating
and expensive. Newcomers face personal, interpersonal, process
and technical barriers during their incorporation, w...
The number of studies focusing on onboarding in software organizations has increased significantly during the last years. However, current literature overlooks onboarding in Software Product Lines (SPLs). SPLs have been proven effective in managing the increasing variability of industry software and enabling systematic reuse of a product family. De...

FeatureCloud is a git client for the visualization of evolution in annotated SPL, i.e. those resorting to ifdefs for variability. Specifically, FeatureCloud (1) mines git repositories; (2) extracts ifdefs; (3) works out differences between two versions of the same ifdefs; (4) abstracts ifdefs in terms of their code churn, tangling and scattering; a...
