Helmuth Schmitz

C/C++ Developer – Creator of Arttista

About

Hi, I’m Helmuth Schmitz, professional bug hunter, part-time coffee philosopher, and full-time code whisperer. For the past 25 years, I've been deep in the trenches of software development here in Brazil, building everything from video players to animation composers, from audio editors to entire multimedia platforms, mostly for TV stations and creative professionals who want their pixels perfectly in place. I speak fluent C/C++, Java, Qt, and OpenGL, and I'm on very friendly terms with Linux (we’ve been through a lot together). Whether it’s Windows, Linux, iOS, or Android – if it runs code, I’ve probably written something for it.
