Hi! I am Carlo

I am an engineering manager, a fullstack developer and in my free time a scuba diver.

Since i was a kid I was always the kind of kid that creates groups of friends, creates a network of connections, plans adventures and makes things happen. Since 2011 I am leading tech teams and engineering organizations, ranging from a small frontend teams in a major ecommerce, to various cross functional teams building complex SaaS products.
See my linkedIn page for more details!

I started my career toying with linux servers and C++ at uni, and then - driven by curiosity and a sense of adventure - I moved to work on web applications, videogames, and everything that interacts with the users and tells the story of a product. I started working in ActionScript 2, then 3, then moved to Javascript and the whole web ecosystem. Over the years I had the chance to work with a variety of technologies and stacks, from LAMP to MEAN, from mobile apps to serverless, and my secret weapon is always creating a strong connection with the Product functions in each company, to understand deeply the users needs and deliver the best possible tools.
I have a GitHub profile, where I work daily and hosts some little projects I love to share!

I started scuba diving at 12 - the minimum legal age - and since then it has become one of my biggest passions. I love exploring the underwater world, its colors, its shapes, and the incredible biodiversity that lives there. In 2019 I got my instructor certificate and in 2023 I became an instructor trainer.

The joy of teaching fits perfectly with my love for sharing knowledge and helping others grow, both in my professional and personal life. Training instructors and coaching them has a very clear parallel with my role as an engineering manager, where I focus on mentoring and developing team leaders and team members to reach their full potential.
