Aura
Android TV
Native app that finds the NAS via DLNA/UPnP and presents the filmography like a streaming platform, with covers generated from TMDB.
Con Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, DLNA/UPnP
NexCode AI
"It doesn't answer. It governs."
The flagship · beta 6.0.22, not published yet
An AI development assistant designed to act, not just suggest: it applies patches, performs automatic rollbacks if something gets worse, and opens pull requests on its own.
Seven supported languages, a 100% local mode and a fully offline Zero-Knowledge mode via Ollama, and a “Learn to Program” section for people starting from zero.
Compliance taken care of from the start: Privacy Policy (Arts. 13-14 GDPR), Terms of Service and an AI Transparency Notice aligned with the AI Act. Designed and built entirely by me, from desktop to cloud.

Looking for a junior developer who has already put real software into production?
I don't have a job title at a company yet: I have a published portfolio. Every project above I conceived, wrote, tested, documented and put online on my own — front-end, back-end, cloud, deployment.
What I bring
- Front-end: React, TypeScript, Kotlin / Jetpack Compose, React Native
- Back-end and cloud: Python, Electron, Cloudflare Workers / Pages / D1 / R2, Docker
- Product: licensing, payments, privacy by design, GDPR
How I work
- I finish things: from idea to publishable product
- Documentation and compliance taken care of from the start
- Structured audits, CI/CD, transparency about limits
Where I come from
- Industrial electrician: job-site precision
- Self-taught: eight projects
- I learn fast and ask when needed
Availability
- Fully remote, hybrid or on-site
- Lecco / Lombardy, open to all of Italy
Send an email and we'll talk: I'll walk you through the projects live, with the code at hand.
From a technical trade to code, no shortcuts.
Eight projects may seem like a lot, but they are chapters of the same book. Read in order, they tell a specific journey.
The trade 2017 – 2025
Before code: cables pulled on construction sites, elevators installed and maintained, industrial systems wired on the machine. Years as an electrician and installer that teach three things: reading a technical specification, respecting safety constraints, delivering something that really has to work. That's where the method was born, not in front of an editor.
The turning point: NexCode AI 2026
Self-taught, my first big project is also the most ambitious: an AI assistant that doesn't suggest, it acts — it applies patches, rolls back on its own, opens pull requests. Frontend, Cloudflare backend, licensing, GDPR and the AI Act: all written and documented by one person.
The home becomes a lab RotaOS
The same hands that used to wire electrical panels now orchestrate a Raspberry Pi 5: dashboard, home automation, wake-up of the NAS and the desktop PC, all in Docker. The philosophy is an installer's: “the control room commands, the NAS works” — every component in the right place, with the right job.
The film library, from archive to couch 2 linked projects
A real problem — thousands of video files with wrong names — becomes a complete chain: Filmografia Renamer renames 12,111 files by cross-referencing TMDB and Wikipedia, and Aura brings the result to the TV with a Netflix-style interface. Two apps, one single flow.
Tools for others 4 products
The rest of the portfolio explores different domains with the same approach: MultiBootUSB for bootable drives, InboxClear for email inbox privacy, GearForge AI for AI-guided modding, CuddleMatch for a community that needed a safe place.
Today 2026
The ecosystem exists, it works, and it is documented. The next chapter is a first role as a Junior Full Stack Developer — remote, hybrid or on-site between Lecco and Lombardy.
One common thread runs through even very different projects: data sovereignty. It's not a constraint imposed from outside — it's a design choice I repeat, project after project.Local-first, local encryption, privacy by design
Job-site precision, applied to software.

- Role sought
- Junior Full Stack Developer
- Work mode
- Fully remote, hybrid or on-site
- Area
- Lecco / Lombardy, or remote
- Background
- Electrician and elevator installer
- Education
- Electrical Technician (Level IV), Enaip
I live in Mandello del Lario, on the shores of the Lecco branch of Lake Como, and I came to programming from an industrial and technical background. For years I worked as an electrical technician and elevator installer: a trade that teaches precision, reading specifications and solving concrete problems under real safety and time constraints.
In recent months I have designed and built, on my own, a portfolio of real applications: desktop and mobile apps, an Android TV app, a cloud backend on Cloudflare, admin panels, an MCP server — and the legal and compliance documentation that goes with them. Including the least fun chapter: security, privacy and GDPR.
Even when something isn't fixed yet, I prefer to write it down clearly, with the technical reason, rather than let it be understood as resolved.
