MY APPROACH

Technology works when the pieces connect.

I am a Software Engineer & Solutions Architect with 8 years of experience across enterprise, Insurtech, and consulting. I support teams and businesses from requirements analysis through release, translating goals and constraints into practical technical decisions. I design solutions that can evolve over time, with a focus on reliability and maintainability.

Software Engineer & Solutions Architect

Consulting · Catania

I design and develop modern software solutions, from architecture and technical decisions to POCs, MVPs, internal web applications, and cross-platform mobile apps. I integrate services and external systems through APIs and microservices, supporting teams from requirements analysis through release.

I develop solutions using RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) and agentic workflows for information retrieval and business process automation. I connect AI models to data, tools, and services through MCP and tool calling, designing data ingestion and processing pipelines and workflows orchestrated by agents.

mid-2023 — 06/2025Lead Software Engineer

I developed backend and frontend solutions for the insurance and medical sectors: internal back-office applications, external tools for customer support and assistance, and batch processes. My work covered building new applications, integrating existing systems, and improving performance and stability.

As Lead Software Engineer, I led a five-person team, including myself, defining solutions and technical decisions, analysing and assigning tasks, and supporting development. I oversaw code reviews, software quality, activity planning, and release coordination.
