📍 Bergamo, Italy · Founder @ SolverForge · Building solver-powered software, AI agents, optimization, and production systems
I build software for hard problems: planning, scheduling, optimization, AI orchestration, developer tooling, and production systems.
My work spans company-building, open source, and operator-grade software — with a bias toward systems that do real work instead of merely gesturing at it.
