Education & Employment

2018

• ²⁰¹⁸⁄₀₁ Senior software developer at Pixartprinting - a Cimpress company
  Design, build and ship Go micro-services on AWS. Support the PHP/AJAX/MySQL legacy ERP monolith while migrating to the new architecture. Focused on the logistic side of the business developing solutions for the packaging and shipping management and integrating external carriers and outsourcers.

2015

• ²⁰¹⁵⁄₀₉ - ²⁰¹⁸⁄₀₁ Full stack ERP developer at Pixartprinting - a Cimpress company
  Develop internal solutions for packaging and shipping management. Design and build Go micro-services on AWS while maintaining the PHP/AJAX/MySQL legacy ERP monolith. Integrate external carriers and outsourcers.

• ²⁰¹⁵⁄₀₁ - ²⁰¹⁵⁄₀₇ INAF-OAPd fellowship
  Study gravitational waves sources in young star clusters by means of direct N-body and stellar evolution simulations. Develop Go and Python code to set up, run and analyse simulations on several remote computing clusters. Modify C++ code to model different physical processes involved.

2012-2015

PhD School in Astronomy - Department of Physics and Astronomy (University of Padova)
Work on N-body simulations of star clusters to study the impact of stellar evolution and dynamics on neutron stars and black holes binary systems. These objects have been observed as sources of gravitational waves. Develop Go and Python code to set up, run and analyse simulations on several remote computing clusters.

Research project title: “The impact of stellar evolution and dynamics on the formation of compact- object binaries” under the supervision of Dr. Michela Mapelli (INAF-OAPd) and Prof. Giuseppe Tormen (University of Padova)
PhD Fellowship funded by: “Strategic Research Project AACSE - Algorithms and Architectures for Computational Science and Engineering”

2007-2011

Master Thesis in Astronomy - Department of Physics and Astronomy (University of Padova) ¹⁰⁸⁄₁₁₀
“Halo-matter cross-correlation in cosmological simulation” under the supervision of Prof. Giuseppe Tormen and Prof. Ravi K. Sheth

2004-2007

Bachelor Thesis in Astronomy - Department of Physics and Astronomy (University of Padova) ¹⁰³⁄₁₁₀
“Studio del profilo dei vortici ottici con diverso momento angolare” (Characterization of optical vortexes with different angular momentum), under the supervision of Prof. Cesare Barbieri, Dott. Fabrizio Tamburini, Gabriele Anzolin

2004

High school degree of Scientific studies

Teaching experience

2012-2013
