Salvatore Maria Italiano
@salvatoremariaitalia
I build scalable Ruby on Rails applications across backend, frontend, cloud, and AI-assisted workflows.
What I'm looking for
I've built and maintained Ruby on Rails web applications since 2013, most recently improving backend maintainability by 30% and reliability by 25% at KMS.
At ArkusNexus, I led a small team while building a project from scratch: a Ruby on Rails REST API and React frontend that retrieved and visualized Jira and GitHub data. I coordinated technical decisions while contributing hands-on across the stack.
At SharpTech, I developed an SMS platform integrating Twilio REST APIs and internal JSON-based applications, reducing the cost of individual SMS messages by 98%.
Across Italianolab and B2B projects, I've worked with Ruby, Rails, React, Node.js, PostgreSQL, AWS, Terraform, and AI tools including Copilot, Cursor, Claude, and ChatGPT to deliver reliable public-facing distributed applications.
