WHAT I LEAD TODAY

Three contexts. One operating model.

End-to-end ownership across product, architecture and delivery, through to measurable outcomes.

TWENTY YEARS IN SOFTWARE

Twenty years building software through technological and business change.

From my first code to technical leadership, an acquired startup and AI products. Each phase added responsibility without taking me away from software.

2006INIT

The first line

I start programming. Software quickly stops being just technology and becomes my way of solving problems.

Ten years in production

Java, PHP, JavaScript, web platforms and open source. Operational systems, integrations and products used every day.

2016—PRESENTSCALE

From startup to acquisition

I co-founded Deliverart, led its technology as CTO and took its product and platform through to full acquisition by TeamSystem.

Building in the AI era

I founded ErinTechLabs and bring AI into real products and operations: data, constraints, oversight and measurable outcomes. Visit ErinTechLabs

SELECTED PROJECTS

Things you can open, use and inspect.

Three projects that represent how I work: concrete problems, legible architecture and software people can actually use.

01OPEN SOURCE // ACCESSIBILITY TOOLING

FocusPath

I designed and released a visual keyboard-navigation scanner. It follows the real focus path in Chromium, flags deterministic issues and generates portable HTML reports.

Documento Facile

I am building a product that applies AI to reading and comparing personal documents, with data normalization, historical comparison and visible human oversight.

DELIVERART // FOUNDER STORY

A startup built, scaled and acquired.

I co-founded Deliverart in 2016 and led it as CTO, turning food-delivery complexity into an operational platform. After its acquisition by TeamSystem, I continue to guide its technological evolution from within.

WHAT I BUILT

A platform modernized without disrupting operations.

Next.js frontends, Symfony and API Platform APIs, services on AWS ECS, automated tests and CI/CD. A progressive evolution of the whole platform, with TypeScript SDKs keeping domains, web apps and integrations consistent.

SELECTED SYSTEMS

Technology matters when it changes real work.

Two professional contexts where architecture and delivery produced verifiable outcomes.

CASE_01AI SHIFT PLANNING // ANONYMIZED CASE

Balanced monthly schedules generated in seconds.

In a test covering the full 2026 annual plan, the system turned company rules, operational constraints and fairness criteria into balanced monthly schedules, generating each plan in seconds.

CASE_02VERISURE // SENIOR CONSULTING

Multichannel lead acquisition, from analysis to production.

Since 2018 I have contributed to the analysis, development and modernization of lead acquisition systems for the Italian market. My work connects multichannel flows and commercial processes, with a focus on automation, reliability and operational continuity.

BEYOND CODE

Not everything needs to ship.

When I am not building software, I build things from wood, play tennis and enjoy a good beer. Preferably in that order.
