Hi, I’m Antonio — a Staff / Tech Lead Software Engineer, building software since 2013 and focused on blockchain protocols and Web3 infrastructure since 2021.
What I do#
System architecture. I design and own systems end to end — architecture, implementation, and how the pieces fit together — rather than just one layer of a larger system.
Technical leadership. Leading a project means owning the hard calls — what to build, what to defer, where the risk actually is — and making sure the team ships with confidence, not just speed.
Security-minded engineering. Security is a habit built into how I design, not a review bolted on afterward — audits and production hardening as part of the process, not an afterthought.
Blockchain & Web3#
This has been my focus since 2021: protocol architecture, smart contracts, and the off-chain infrastructure that supports them, built and shipped to production with external audits along the way.
For the full role-by-role history — companies, titles, and years — see my LinkedIn profile.
Open to#
Remote roles, based in Italy — blockchain protocol / Web3 infrastructure roles first, and staff or lead engineering roles more broadly where architecture, ownership, and security rigor matter.
Outside of work#
I run, do yoga and boxing, and I’m always planning the next trip — Norway, Spain, Portugal, and Greece are next on the list. Non-native English speaker, still working on French and Spanish too — if you spot a mistake, let me know.
