Claudio – React, Typescript, Node.js
Claudio is a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with ~9 years of experience, specializing in React and TypeScript with genuinely strong full-stack depth across Node.js. He's shipped end-to-end products across healthtech, logistics, civic-tech, and creative domains — often as the sole or lead engineer, taking products from architecture to live production. He brings product-owner instincts to engineering work: raises concerns proactively, drives data-informed decisions, and negotiates technical trade-offs directly with stakeholders. He integrates AI tooling daily — for architectural planning, adversarial solution review, and code generation — treating it as a core part of the engineering workflow rather than a novelty.

Lead Full-Stack / Mobile Engineer
A two-sided luggage pickup and delivery platform connecting travelers with verified drivers across Italy. The product spans a traveler-facing mobile application, a backend handling delivery and payment workflows, and an operations dashboard for monitoring drivers, deliveries, and exceptional cases.
- Architected the mobile application, backend API, and operations dashboard within a shared TypeScript monorepo;
- implemented the complete delivery lifecycle, from booking and driver assignment to pickup confirmation and completed delivery;
- built real-time driver tracking using Firestore subscriptions and distance-based traveler notifications;
- implemented a route calculation system with Mapbox, Google Maps, and Haversine fallbacks;
- integrated Stripe PaymentIntents, webhooks, idempotency controls, and authorization-to-capture payment flows;
- developed background jobs for ETA monitoring, route recalculation, and payment reconciliation;
- integrated OpenAI Structured Outputs to provide controlled multilingual translations with graceful fallbacks;
- configured Docker-based deployments, secret management, and CI/CD delivery to GCP Cloud Run;
- wrote unit and integration tests for critical business, payment, and delivery workflows.
Full-Stack Engineer
A mobile-first digital health product supporting users during conservative lymphoedema therapy. The MVP covers onboarding, health and therapy tracking, historical data, and secure access to sensitive health information — built to test adoption and retention with real users. Delivered in approximately 30 engineering days.
- Created the frontend, application, and data architecture for a test-ready health-tech MVP;
- designed the PostgreSQL data model for users, health entries, therapy-related data, goals and reminders;
- implemented authentication, signup, login and password recovery using Supabase Auth;
- implemented database-level access control through Supabase Row-Level Security policies;
- built the mobile-first onboarding, tracking and history user journeys with Next.js and React;
- configured preview environments and continuous deployment through GitHub and Vercel;
- integrated Sentry for error monitoring and PostHog for onboarding, activation and retention analysis;
- wrote automated tests with Vitest for authentication and core tracking workflows;
- optimized the onboarding and first-value experience based on early user behaviour and product metrics;
- delivered the initial test-ready product in approximately 30 engineering days.
Lead Full-Stack Engineer
A civic-tech platform for monitoring an invasive species across a regional territory. It transforms citizen and volunteer field reports — including photos, videos, and GPS data — into validated geospatial records that institutional operators can review, classify, analyse, and export.
- Designed the complete report-to-validation workflow for citizens, volunteers and institutional operators;
- implemented a mobile-oriented reporting flow with photos, videos, GPS coordinates and field data;
- built an anonymous reporting flow with subsequent account creation and report attribution;
- implemented authentication, data persistence and media-management capabilities using Firebase;
- developed an operator dashboard for reviewing, correcting, validating and rejecting reports;
- implemented report status management, classifications, filters and structured search capabilities;
- integrated interactive maps and heatmaps for geospatial analysis of validated reports;
- built Excel export functionality for institutional reporting and offline analysis;
- optimized the reporting experience to achieve a median completion time below two minutes;
- helped reduce operator review time by approximately 40% compared with the previous email-and-spreadsheet process.
WebXR / Full-Stack Engineer
A browser-based WebXR experience built for a contemporary art exhibition, targeting Meta Quest 3. Visitors explore an immersive spatial environment, perform gestures in three-dimensional space, and receive a personalized generated visual output. The experience was hardened for repeated use by first-time visitors in a public gallery setting.
- Contributed to the technical architecture of a browser-based WebXR experience for Meta Quest 3;
- implemented the guided visitor journey from language selection to immersive interaction and generated result;
- built controller-based gesture capture and three-dimensional movement tracking;
- orchestrated 3D application states, spatial audio, video playback and animated transitions;
- integrated backend APIs used to generate and retrieve personalized visual outputs;
- implemented localization and multilingual visitor flows;
- designed recoverable states for interrupted sessions and headset handovers;
- debugged browser, headset and controller-specific WebXR issues;
- tested the experience on-site with the reference hardware;
- hardened the application for repeated use by first-time visitors in a public exhibition environment.
Lead Full-Stack Engineer
An anonymized two-sided marketplace for the creative industry, developed in collaboration with a partner studio. The platform was scoped to reach a credible staging-ready state before the complete marketplace feature set, built on an existing product foundation rather than a full rewrite.
- Took ownership of the primary technical execution while StudioMesh managed client communication and project coordination;
- analysed and extended an existing product foundation rather than replacing the platform with a full rewrite;
- built separate user experiences for the platform’s two main audiences;
- developed modular and responsive Next.js frontend components;
- integrated Directus as the content-management backbone of the platform;
- implemented API-driven content workflows that allowed non-technical stakeholders to update platform content;
- built a curated portfolio layer to provide credible content before organic marketplace density was available;
- implemented authentication and session-management flows;
- separated experience, application and content concerns to support incremental product evolution;
- configured a staging environment suitable for client demonstrations, feedback collection and product validation;
- debugged and resolved issues inherited from earlier implementation and design decisions.
