ABOUT ME
CTO/ Founder/ Engineering Manager
CTO/ Founder/ Engineering Manager

My multifaceted profile is the result of my analytical mindset, my passion for building viable products, my knowledge in Lean Startup and Agile, my belief in people and teams, and my deep expertise in Engineering.

The desire to constantly challenge myself brought me to begin my journey as a Software Engineer for DailyDeal - ex-Google, international local deals e-commerce - where I first worked on a complete platform rebuilt introducing new tech solutions (React, NodeJS, MongoDB, etc) and then as Engineering Manager where I had the privilege to lead a team of talented engineers, designers and product owners and manage the development and the release of some of the most impactful projects.

I love what I do and I am always happy and excited to share my enthusiasm with others and to help them achieve their dreams. This is why during my time at DailyDeal, I supported Codeworks - leading bootcamp in Europe - as a teacher, holding lectures and crafting courses, and as an ambassador.

In 2018 I was lucky enough to join Bain & Company’s ADAPT team. While at Bain I helped some of the most successful companies in the EMEA region to ideate, build and validate new products and ventures. I focused on delivering real, demonstrable, repeatable results to our clients using Agile, Lean Startup, and Human-Centred Design. The immense learnings drove me to found Grazie, an ultra-local marketplace for services launched in 2020 and operating in Berlin and Milan.

React is my favorite frontend framework (I also know Angular and Backbone). I used for 1+ year in a production environment, working for one of the biggest e-commerce platforms in Germany. I master the framework and know how to architect and structure from scratch a complete website in React in a way that is performant, elegant and maintainable. I worked with React using both internal component's state and Redux and can recognize the benefits of both the approaches. My React applications uses presentational and container components to respect separation of concerns, maintainability and testability. I teach React in one of the best bootcamps in Europe (Codeworks)

I started programming in JavaScript several years ago and since two at a very high level. I master the language and its paradigms, I know the pros, the cons, where the language shines and where it falls short. Because of my experience I've been asked to carry on code reviews and to lead and mentor my colleagues. I worked as a Senior Software Engineer for a company with 150+ employees, and my job was to lead the complete rewriting of a platform with thousands of visitor per day. Due to my high standards and knowledge I was also conducting interviews and selecting new hires.

I developed my Node.js experience working on several projects. The most relevant one is a collaborative real-time whiteboard that allows multiple users to simultaneously interact remotely on the same canvas. I know how to build a RESTful API and I can think the asyncronous way using callbacks, promises (worked with Bluebird and Q), and the latest async/await patterns. I used websockets, Redis, MongoDB and MySQL. I built servers and workers, deploying them on both AWS and Heroku
