What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles where I can lead teams to build secure, scalable web platforms, drive cloud/DevOps adoption, and automate network and application operations.

I am a Senior Telecommunications Engineer and Full-Stack Developer with over 10 years combining Ruby on Rails development and infrastructure management across cloud platforms. I build scalable web applications, design secure solutions, and automate processes to improve performance and reliability.

At Citibank I developed internal Rails applications for network monitoring and incident management, migrated legacy apps to Rails 6, and led a 5-developer Scrum team while achieving 92% test coverage with RSpec and Capybara. I have integrated systems with Cisco ACI, VMware, OAuth2, and implemented DevOps practices across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.

I hold a Telecommunications Engineering degree from the University of Pisa and industry certifications including CCNA, Python, and Ruby. I focus on delivering secure, maintainable systems using MVC and microservices architectures, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure automation.
