  Resume:

I have a degree in Computer Science and over 10 years of Information Communication Technology experience. I always had a deep passion in technology and security, with a focus on wired and wireless networks and mobile device's technology. Throughout my professional life, I always accepted and enjoyed challenges with a heavy grade of difficulties, solving and studying it by myself or joining some security or research group. My experience forged and made me enthusiast in problem solving.

I worked as network administrator, analyst and architect for a wireless provider. This job experience included also customer care and telephonic helpdesk with the customers I followed. I also increased my experience background adding Video Surveillance skills, acquiring knowledge about common issues in that field, and understanding what the customer is looking for.

My last job experience was exactly what I was looking for and what I periodically look for: challenge. So I worked for a company which operates in the ICT field, projecting an encrypted system layout and coding its tools and routines with a main focus on security. For that job, I developed an encryption engine for an highly increased security level that's unique for each devices where this encryption system is running. Obviously it also contains anti-reversing tricks, anti-debugger traps and obfuscation techniques. Actually I'm following 2 companies as DevOps: one is a CMS Web company, the other one is developing a M2M system with cloud support: almost daily I have to do with code versioning, installations and deployments, disaster recovery, databases, virtualization, problem solving and troubleshooting.

I also worked on my own creating a GPS tracking platform which supports Android and Symbian smartphones and a VoIP encryption platform, compatible with all OS and almost all smartphones and tablets.

I relish new challenges in my professional life: I believe meeting new peoples' experiences is a great way to learn. Just a few infos about me: I live in Sardinia (Italy), I'm Italian mother tongue and I also speak a fluent English on a daily basis.

My mission is to hack, no matter what. Hire me, before I "hire" you.

I'm a sysadmin with a broad base of experience. I run Windows and Linux servers and I've written a few Rails apps for my employer. I'm looking for a position where I can build new things -- whether that's as a sysadmin or a Rails developer depends on you. I'm flexible, and I learn quickly; I love to work with new technologies. I'm decent at security, and would be excited for a security position if the type of work is right.

Take a look at my (anonymized) resume for a more detailed list of things I've already worked with, and send me an email if anything interests you.

I'm closing in on two years as a full-stack (emphasis backend) web developer/junior devops type, and I'm looking to mix it up a little bit: something in the direction of systems programming, tool development/more serious DevOps, or programmatic data crunching would be very exciting. That said, I'm open to all sorts of experiences, and look forward to hearing from you -- especially if you can land me overseas.

Some of my recent personal projects include:

  * a special-purpose sshd for serving git traffic using go and the crypto/ssh package (no crypto code from my hands, honest)

  * failure mode, a tool for burn-testing web apps against external conditions (latency, packet loss, etc. -- similar to the Simian Army at NetFlix)

  * year seven as one of the lead developers of Spring: 1944, an open source RTS game.

  * documentation for Perl 6

I can get into detail about $work projects if we end up chatting. Thanks!
