“Since day one of our working relationship Luca showed an enviable passion, humility and energy. I found him to be technically very well prepared and knowledgeable, capable of actually building a quality product using software. He constantly advocates good coding principles, focuses on security and quality, and manages to have a correct balance between time to market and reduction of technical and architectural debt. I would totally recommend him in any team, he is an intelligent and excellent player that can add product sensitivity and analytical capabilities on top of strong technological skills, making him the perfect mix of hard and soft skills every manager and company are looking for.”
About
I'm a software developer with a backend focus. I have worked remotely since 2020.
I enjoy working in cross-functional teams and engaging directly with stakeholders.
I love following and chatting about software engineering practices like DDD and DevOps. Both involve customer-oriented thinking, a business-oriented mindset, and attention to quality and sociotechnical constraints.
