Engineering leader with background in academic research and data visualization.
I lived and worked in Amsterdam (The Netherlands), La Jolla (CA), Tallinn (Estonia) and San Francisco (CA) while completing my PhD and then getting into the tech industry. Today I'm back in Rome (Italy) and cherish remote work in a distributed, multicultural environment at Sysdig.
With no plans to become a manager, I ended up being one because that's what my team needed at the time. Turns out I really like to build, challenge, and grow engineering teams. All while delivering incrementally, contributing on a technical level, and promoting humility and fairness as core values.
Check out my resume for more about me (beyond just work!).

Here are some of the tools I developed over the years, mostly during my life as a researcher.
Radian
Radian
is a tool for the visualization of traceroute measurements.
It presents the network at different abstraction levels
and allows to animate the evolution of network paths during a selected time interval.
We tested Radian with data collected by RIPE Atlas Internet probes, used to perform active network measurements towards several Internet services.
Radian was developed by the Compunet Research Group at Roma Tre University.

BGPlay.js
BGPlay.js is a Web-friendly reimplementation of a popular tool called BGPlay.
It helps visualize changes to the reachability of any IP subnet,
based on BGP updates collected at various world locations.
BGPlay.js is based on modern Web technologies (JavaScript, SVG) and is part of RIPEstat as the main UI for data collected by the RIPE NCC Routing Information Service. It was sponsored by the RIPE NCC and developed by the Compunet Research Group at Roma Tre University. The source code is freely available on GitHub.

Hydra
Hydra
shows the interplay between the routing information exchanged via BGP
and the active measurements collected by distributed probes.
The latter are partitioned into clusters associated with each border gateway, based on observed traffic patterns.
Hydra was developed by the Compunet Research Group at Roma Tre University.

VisualK
VisualK allows to visualize the status and evolution
of the service provided by the
K-root name server
in near real-time.
K-root is pictured as a node-link graph where each node is an anycast instance and each link implies topological proximity between two instances. The size of each node reflects the volume of traffic served by the corresponding instance. Links become active when there are traffic migrations between instances.
VisualK was designed and implemented at the RIPE NCC in collaboration with Roma Tre University.

Caidagram
Caidagram shows distributed Internet measurements
focusing on trends and variations over time.
Each graph extends the geographic mapping metaphor of standard
cartograms to
Internet measurements,
in an attempt to maximise intuitiveness and readability.
Caidagram can feature
interactive animations illustrating data trends over time.
Caidagram was developed at CAIDA (the Cooperative Association for Internet Data Analysis) in collaboration with the RIPE NCC.
