About

With over 25 years of experience in software development and enterprise architecture, I operate at the intersection of large-scale systems, cloud platforms, and Artificial Intelligence. As an Enterprise AI Architect, I help organizations design, govern, and scale AI-enabled solutions that are secure, resilient, and fully integrated into complex enterprise ecosystems. My background as a Solution Architect spans J2EE, SOA, and modern cloud platforms such as AWS and OpenShift, with a strong foundation in microservices architecture and Domain-Driven Design (DDD). This allows me to architect AI systems that are not only technically robust, but also aligned with business domains, regulatory constraints, and long-term enterprise strategy. In recent years, I have expanded my focus to Generative AI and agentic system architectures, designing and implementing AI-driven workflows based on autonomous and semi-autonomous agents. I work with LLMs, agent orchestration patterns, and tool-augmented reasoning, integrating GenAI capabilities into existing enterprise platforms to improve decision-making, automation, and developer productivity. A key area of expertise is prompt engineering at enterprise scale, including prompt design, chaining, optimization, evaluation, and versioning. I apply structured prompting techniques and reusable prompt patterns to ensure reliability, consistency, and explainability of AI outputs in production environments, with a strong focus on risk mitigation and alignment with business objectives. As a certified Spring Framework specialist, I bring hands-on expertise in Kubernetes orchestration, NoSQL data platforms, and cloud-native development, enabling me to bridge strategic AI architecture with practical implementation. I have successfully delivered mission-critical solutions for organizations such as Telecom Italia and Poste Italiane, driving digital transformation through modern architectures and AI-driven automation. Passionate about innovation and responsible AI adoption, I continuously explore how Generative AI, agentic workflows, and enterprise architecture practices can converge to create sustainable, governable, and future-ready AI platforms. Let’s connect to build scalable, trustworthy, and business-aligned AI systems for the enterprise.
