Software engineer at Fondazione Edmund Mach building mobile applications, APIs, and mapping solutions with Python and geospatial tools.

Italy
Message

At Fondazione Edmund Mach, I contribute to product development across mobile applications, API development, and mapping solutions. I develop and test features, and work with SQL and NoSQL databases.

I collaborate across the stack using Python, React.js, and Flutter, alongside tools such as PostgreSQL, MongoDB, GeoServer, and OpenLayers. I also contribute to mapping solutions and mobile applications for Android and iOS.

At Università di Trento, I apply machine learning and data science tools to climate-change research involving large volumes of unstructured data represented as meshes. Earlier, at Mekelle University - Mekelle Institute of Technology, I taught computer science courses and worked on application development projects.
