About
I was born in October 1988, under the sign of Libra, in a small
town in Calabria. According to the stories, it was a sunny morning.
After letting go my dream of becoming a soccer player, my other great passion, computer
science, took center stage and became my profession.
For the past 15 years, whether for work or simply for the love of it, I’ve been wearing
out mice and keyboards, solving complex problems, designing workflows,
coordinating teams and projects, and having fun while learning, thanks
to different experiences and that fantastic thing called Open Source.

Agreements (SLAs) were being met, and fostered
an inclusive work environment that valued cultural diversity, promoting clear

to customer requests. In the DevOps context, I worked across multiple
environments for different clients, designing
and implementing scalable and secure CI/CD pipelines, using tools such as GitLab
CI/CD and Azure DevOps.

improving speed and reducing manual errors.
Another area of expertise was in the development of custom solutions with a
focus on Mulesoft and related services.
I designed and implemented APIs on Anypoint Platform, enhancing interoperability
between customer systems.
I developed ETL flows to manage and transform large volumes of data. I
integrated these solutions with third-party tools,
such as Salesforce and SAP, providing hybrid and cloud-based architectures
tailored to specific project needs.
I worked with the ELK Stack to analyze real-time logs and create custom
monitoring dashboards, used Postman to
test and document APIs, including test automation to mantain high quality
standards, implemented advanced monitoring
solutions with tools such as Prometheus and Grafana, ensuring proactive
monitoring of infrastructure and anticipating
potential issues. These experiences have honed my skills in operational
management, technical support, and innovative
solution development, all focused on meeting customer needs and ensuring
high-level results.

Milan
Vedete là nel cielo, in quel piccolo sole
d’inverno tra le nebbie, un ricordo del sole?
Come la luna guarda e si lascia guardare.
Milano a mezzogiorno è già crepuscolare.
E gli alberi anneriti in quel freddo d’argento
hanno rami gentili, a tratti passa il vento,
un vento senza voce, a poco a poco imbruna.
Solo il piccolo sole come una grande luna.
Così il Duomo fiorito di grigio e di lichene
appare nelle nebbie delle notti serene.
