I can help you ship your next big thing. Let's talk.
I got to work on Typefully since it was at a very early stage.
I created the rich-text editor at the core of the product experience, used by thousands of users every day to craft their social media posts.
I created other core features like draft comments, collaboration and draft sync, in-app and email user notifications, and user profiles.
One of my favourite products out there.
I've built the Podcast integration and I completely revamped the Sources gallery, making it super easy for users to add a new source to their personal digests.
I worked on top-selling, flagship, iOS apps (e.g. Splice, 30 Day Fitness).
I've also been part of a team of 3, building the backbone library that would be later integrated inside all the apps in the company portfolio.
We aimed to provide simple APIs and DX for internal developers, while successfully serving millions of users.
Side Projects
I've built FeedsMage to help users find and aggregate the RSS feeds of their favorite creators through the link-in-bios of the people they followed on Twitter.
The project is now discontinued as per Twitter API changes that made the project non viable anymore.
Tech stack: NextJS, Firebase
This service would help people keep up with their read-later links.
Users would send links to read later to the iOS app or Telegram bot, and they would receive a recap email in their inbox at the end of the week.
Android app for Italian train commuters (I was one of them during University years), with lots of UX niceties and optimisations, that would help people cope with the otherwise very bad services offered by the official apps.
It gained a lot of traction within its niche but sadly, I had to shut it down in the end.
I wrote an article describing the backend APIs from the main train vendor in Italy (Trenitalia) that went kind-of viral.
