Software Developer with an electrical engineering background
About
From circuit boards to web platforms
I work mostly with Next.js, React, TypeScript and Python. At Politecnico di Torino I built the frontend of the HPP Central Dashboard, a research computing platform, from scratch. It grew to about 39,000 lines of TypeScript, and in a test with 11 users it scored 80.9 out of 100 on the System Usability Scale.
I have been building for the web since 2015. Through Hello Code I delivered more than 100 production websites, from early HTML and jQuery work to custom WordPress themes and plugins and, later, React.
Before and alongside that, I worked with hardware. I studied electronics, repaired circuit boards, wired building automation panels, and later looked after the electrical rooms, chillers and HVAC of a large commercial complex.
In other projects I simulate data center power and cooling, and map how people reach public transport in Stockholm and Amsterdam. I like software that sits close to real data and real equipment, and it helps that I know what the panels, sensors and plant rooms behind that data look like.
The path so far
Electrical and electronics
A BEng in Electronic Engineering Technology and hands-on electronics work: circuits, PCB inspection, measurement and component-level diagnosis.
Building automation
Installing and commissioning smart-home and building-automation systems, then technical facility work across electrical rooms, plant rooms, chillers and HVAC.
Web and digital systems
Ten years of freelance web development through Hello Code: 100+ production websites, custom WordPress themes and plugins, hosting and long-term support.
Full-stack software
Dashboards, APIs and data-driven applications with Next.js, React, TypeScript, Express.js, FastAPI and PostgreSQL.
IoT and monitoring
Telemetry, alarms and industrial protocols such as Modbus TCP and MQTT, including a software digital twin of data center infrastructure.
Geospatial and data
Spatial analysis, transit accessibility and mobility data with PostGIS, GeoPandas and MapLibre.
