What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles where I can lead development of production systems, integrate LLMs/AI, improve SDLCs, mentor teams, and drive product-focused technical strategy in a collaborative, growth-oriented environment.

I am a senior software engineer with a strong full-stack background and a focus on generative AI integrations and LLMs. I hold a Master's in Computer Science from Sapienza University of Rome and have published research on evaluation frameworks for generative AI visualizations.

I have led product development, client interactions, and deployment automation across remote and onsite roles, working with PHP (Laravel, CodeIgniter, Symfony), Python (Flask), web technologies, and cloud tooling such as AWS, Docker, Redis, and CI/CD pipelines. I improved internal software development lifecycles and integrated shipping providers and deployment pipelines for multiple clients.

I deliver reliable production systems, mentor teams, and drive technical strategy—balancing hands-on engineering with project leadership to move products from requirements to stable deployments.
