I’m a software engineer and entrepreneur based in Milan, Italy. I'm currently leading the engineering team at Orama, which I co-founded in 2023 with Issac Roth (CEO) and Angela Angelini (CDO).
For over a decade, I've worked with startups and large companies in both product development and consultancy roles, gleaning insights from both worlds.
In 2022, I authored "Real-World Next.js," published by Packt Publishing. You can find it on Amazon. The book draws inspiration from my work on Paramount's platform team, where I designed and implemented a high-performance, multitenant Node.js application server. This server powered over 250 streaming websites from a single, medium EC2 instance, handling up to 14,000 requests per second, with Next.js serving the front-end.
As a Staff Software Engineer at Nearform, I designed and built Orama—an incredibly fast and portable full-text and vector search engine. It's written entirely in TypeScript without any external dependencies.
In 2023, I founded a company based on Orama. Today, it powers millions of monthly search requests on major websites including nodejs.org, tanstack.com, and docs.deno.com, among others.
Over the past few years, I've spoken at approximately a hundred international conferences and meetups, covering topics such as software architecture, computer science, and more.
