Hi, I'm Daniel Prilik

I'm a Software Engineering 2020 student at the University of Waterloo


This Winter, I'm doing Software Engineering at Google, working to improve the Linux experience on ChromeOS (crosvm)


As a co-op student, I've had the chance to work at a bunch of really awesome companies! In the past, I've done...



I'm always interested in learning more about different aspects of software engineering!

At the moment, I'm particularly interested in topics such as emulation, systems programming, and OS dev.



I've recently started a blog!

I'm not entirely sure what type of content I'll be posting, but whatever it might be, I'll try to make it interesting!


Here are some posts I'm particularly proud of:




When I'm not studying, working, or unwinding, I'll make some time to work on side-projects that I find interesting.

You can find links and info to some of the more interesting projects I've worked on below.


And hey, if anything here catches your eye and you're interested in getting in touch, I'd love to talk!
