I am a Senior Software Engineer with several years of experience designing and developing complex and high-scale Python applications operating in cloud environments. I have a successful track record of implementing programming paradigms such as microservices, event-driven, and domain-driven. I am deeply passionate about modern software engineering design and development principles. I am committed to staying at the forefront of the industry by constantly learning and adopting the latest technologies and techniques. I have also gained valuable experience managing remote teams of developers, where I applied and enhanced the methodologies developed with the Scrum Master certification. As a versatile and adaptable engineer, I am always eager to learn and thrive in multicultural and multidisciplinary teams. I am deeply committed to continuous improvement and innovation.
I worked in the Research and Development team, contributing to developing and improving backend services such as users management and alert monitoring, which were fundamental in providing data and insights to the company's primary platform application.
I created a microservices application from the ground up, using VMware Cloud Director and AWS to offer customers interactive demo labs and product trials. The entire backend application was built using the Event-Driven pattern and Apache Kafka to manage data streaming. Additionally, I efficiently designed and implemented new features and integrations with marketing and business analysis applications and third-party clients. Finally, I managed the application lifecycle using a comprehensive DevOps approach, following the "You Build It, You Run It" principle and utilizing Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service.
I developed an application for managing access to historically significant books and other assets digitalized and stored in the cloud and Grid computing. The project was successfully showcased to the European project DARIAH Competence Centre using a large dataset (images and audio files about the Bavarian dialects spoken within the Austrian-Hungarian monarchy from the beginning of the German language to the present) provided by the Austrian Academy of Sciences.
I worked as a software engineer to provide backend services for many startup projects, some of them grant-winning, such as lookii.me (Bluetooth iBeacon Application ) and Sapury (Food Delivery Digital Platform)
