Soft Skills

  • Teamwork

    Working in team for university projects I understood how much important is to take into account everybody's point of view when facing each step of the development process of any kind of product, in order to improve the final result while minimizing the effort.
    I also had the opportunity to lead some of the teams I was part of and I am even more proud for how much every member was satisfied of the way we worked together along the path.

  • Problem Solving

    I enjoyed looking for solutions for problems that came up during the development of a software product, because I saw those moments as opportunities to enlarge my knowledge. Moreover I feel like I improved the way I face every kind of obstacle, leading to a quicker and better troubleshooting.

  • Work Ethic

    When I work on a project, by myself or as a team, I always strive for the best version possible, taking care of the development process in a ordered way, following standards and conventions. Whenever possible, I also add a personal touch with some details not explicitly requested. It is important to me that I am 100% satisfied with the product I deliver, even if it requires to work overtime.

  • Communication

    I am a great listener and many people said about me that I am able to understand how someone feels and to behave in the proper way depending on the situation. I like to be technical when needed but I can also explain complex things in a simpler and clearer way.

Portfolio

Relevant projects I worked on

Polycube Network

Polycube

Project Link

Polycube is an open source software framework that provides fast and lightweight network functions.
Polycube services, called cubes, can be composed to build arbitrary service chains and provide custom network connectivity to namespaces, containers, virtual machines, and physical hosts.
I contributed to this project mainly by adding stateful capabilities to the daemon, but I also provided other small additions and fixes.
