Senior backend engineer · fintech · Milan
I design systems that stay reliable as traffic and complexity grow.
I work across architecture and delivery: shaping service boundaries, building critical backend flows, and operating cloud platforms in regulated environments.

Reliable subscription and loyalty flows, with automation that removes repetitive operational work.

03 · Expertise
From service boundaries to production.
I combine system design with hands-on delivery. The goal is not a clever diagram, but a system teams can understand, operate, and change safely.
Architecture approach

05 · About
The person behind the systems.
Engineering matters most to me when it combines sound judgment, shared understanding, and responsibility for what happens after release.
How I work
01
Make the system understandable
Clear boundaries and explicit trade-offs help teams move faster than clever abstractions.
02
Own the production outcome
Delivery includes observability, safe releases, and staying close to real operational behaviour.
03
Automate with intent
Tooling should remove repetitive work while keeping decisions and failure modes visible.
Outside work
My daughter brings perspective, energy, and purpose to every day.
A lively household with no shortage of interruptions or character.
A long-term discipline built on patience, repetition, and continuous refinement.
