Software engineer
from product decisions
to release systems.
My path runs from deciding what should be built to backend and platform engineering, release automation and production feedback. The selected work below shows the systems, trade-offs and outcomes.

About me
01 / 04
Built across places
and detours.
I was born in North Macedonia, grew up in Italy and later moved to Switzerland. That movement taught me to adapt quickly without pretending the route was linear.
Software became the place where curiosity could turn concrete. I care less about technology as status than about whether a system makes sense, can be operated and deserves to exist.

Working across
Albanian, Italian, English, German
What I bring
I bridge product intent and engineering reality, from the first useful question to a system someone else can operate.
Build the whole path
Connect interfaces, services and data while protecting compatibility and operability.
Make shipping repeatable
Turn fragile release steps into delivery that can be repeated, inspected and improved.
A note I carry with me
My lifelong motto, kept in its original wording.
«Punta alle stelle e se fallisci arriverai comunque sulla Luna»
I have always read it as an invitation to act. Trying does not guarantee the destination, but it changes what becomes possible. Remaining still guarantees only that nothing changes.
Experience, briefly

A non-linear path
Real work throughout.
Each chapter added a different kind of responsibility: make the environment repeatable, protect a legacy dependency, listen to the operator, own the release and check the system after it ships.
Software Engineer
I trace platform changes across services, infrastructure and release pipelines. The job is not finished when the code compiles; I turn one-off steps into repeatable delivery and leave enough operational evidence to understand the release in production.
A non-linear chapter
Since relocating to Switzerland, I have taken on temporary operational roles outside software to support the move.
Full-Stack Developer
I worked directly with clients on an established ERP, then traced each request through the web application, shared data model and release. Compatibility mattered because older desktop software relied on the same database; every change had to improve the requested flow without breaking the one already in use.
Software Development Intern · Cloud & QA
Cloud environments, automated web and mobile checks, load tests and R&D prototypes were my first paid software work. It taught me to turn a successful experiment into a procedure someone else could repeat and diagnose.
Computer Science & Telecommunications
The applied programme joined software, systems, networks and telecommunications. Graduating with 92/100 gave me the technical foundation for the projects and professional systems that followed.
Selected projects
03 / 04
Built in public
Limits included.
Three working tools, each with a product surface and a technical case study. The write-ups include the choices, evidence and limits, not just the polished outcome.
CareerOS Local.
A private desktop workspace that uses a local language model to compare roles, prepare applications and keep the reasoning on the user’s machine.
- Question tested
- Can useful AI stay local and subordinate to user-owned evidence?
ELIZA Lab.
A Rust workbench for classifiers that can admit uncertainty, with calibrated abstention and reproducible model artifacts.
- Question tested
- Can a classifier expose uncertainty instead of forcing an answer?
VECTOR.
A self-hosted placement operations workspace for schools, with versioned programme rules, role-scoped access and an audit trail for sensitive actions.
- Question tested
- Can programme rules change without erasing the operational history behind them?
