Work History

Tech Lead

Aerobloc
Dubai
07.2024 - Current

As Tech Lead at Aerobloc, I am responsible for designing and building the entire technology stack behind a blockchain-based platform that enables notarization and near real-time settlement of flight-related financial transactions between airports and airlines.

Working in close collaboration with aviation industry experts, I architected and implemented the system from the ground up, including:

  • Data Broker: A robust backend service that receives, processes, and normalizes flight data from multiple sources.
  • Core Backend API: An application that exposes enriched and aggregated data for airports and airlines, enabling seamless integration with the frontend and external systems.
  • Frontend Interface: A modern, responsive UI featuring a live flight map and operational dashboards, built to provide real-time visibility and interaction for platform users.

The platform also leverages blockchain technology to notarize transactions and ensure transparency, traceability, and immutability. Settlement is handled through a custom stablecoin architecture designed to streamline financial flows and eliminate friction in multi-party transactions.

Tech Lead

Cognitive AI
Milan
06.2022 - Current

As a core team member at one of Italy’s leading advertising companies, I’ve been responsible for designing and coordinating the development of a web platform that aggregates data from multiple DSP (Demand-Side Platform) sources. The goal is to provide a centralized business intelligence system that boosts campaign profitability and enables real-time performance monitoring.

  • Backend: Built a scalable and resilient backend using Python and MongoDB to handle complex data aggregation pipelines.
  • Frontend: Developed a responsive, intuitive dashboard in React for actionable data visualization.
  • Involved in the entire lifecycle—from concept to implementation, optimization, and client feedback integration.

Recent focus: I’ve led the development of Delphi, the company’s internal AI agent designed to eliminate workflow friction by unifying information across tools like ClickUp, Google Drive, and other internal data sources. Delphi provides multi-channel access via a web interface, email, and can also be triggered directly inside ClickUp, serving as a central knowledge assistant across departments.

Tech Lead

SweetBlocks
09.2022 - 11.2023
  • Together with passionate blockchain and crypto enthusiasts, I have created and developed a protocol that governs and manages the supply and demand of a token (SWTB) with an innovative gamified tokenomics approach.
  • Currently, the protocol is in the testing stage as we fine-tune and ensure its robustness and functionality. We are rigorously testing all components, including the 8 smart contracts comprising an ERC-20 token, an ERC-1155 semi-fungible NFT, a Uniswap V2-style liquidity pool with its LP token, two staking contracts, and two DAOs. Our aim is to release the protocol to the public by the end of this year.
  • In addition to the core components mentioned earlier, the protocol also features a Node backend application to capture blockchain events, allowing for internal analysis and monitoring.
  • And a JavaScript command-line application that enables seamless interaction with the protocol.
  • For more details about the protocol and its development progress, please refer to the following links:
