What I'm looking for

I'm looking to grow toward program and customer program management roles in aerospace and defence, building on hands-on flight simulator delivery, customer-facing field operations, and cross-functional coordination.

At Leonardo Aircraft, I deploy simulator software updates and resolve hardware and software faults as the on-site technical reference at international customer facilities.

I've spent 15+ weeks on customer-site missions, gathering requirements from pilots and instructors, tailoring simulator configurations, and leading testing, acceptance, and troubleshooting under time pressure. I also coordinate visual systems, flight controls, and avionics integration to deliver updates and upgrades on schedule.

With an MSc in Aeronautical Engineering from Politecnico di Milano, I combine flight simulation, aerodynamic analysis, and hands-on field operations. I'm growing toward program and customer program management roles in aerospace and defence.
