Fabio C.

I'm Fabio, a Passionate Engineer and Engineering Manager with nearly 2 decades of expertise. Focused on optimising Architecture & Infrastructure (Containers & VMs), as well as Processes (Pipelines & Deployments).

I have a diverse career path, starting as a freelancer and then becoming an employee, a startupper, and CTO, and then going into a pendulum between software engineering and management. I have gained experience in various markets and industries, working in different roles.

Working in a variety of roles, from Software Developer to Frontend/Backend Developer, from Sysadmin to Team Leader, allowed me to work on each layer of a web application, covering the whole life-cycle from initial requirements gathering to design, planning, coding, testing, documentation, deployment, and maintenance.
