Profile
I am Head of Software at 24 Industries, a startup that builds uncrewed aerial systems. My work covers drone software and Ground Control Stations: architecture, autonomy, simulation, software quality assurance, and compliance with aerospace standards. I also hire, and build the engineering team up as the company grows.
Before that I worked on autonomous robots in the logistics industry, at Magazino GmbH. I led a team of more than 20 engineers responsible for robot architecture design, robot behavior development, simulation, and software and hardware quality assurance. I have worked mainly in Python, C++, and Prolog, on ROS.
My background spans physics, robotics, and artificial intelligence. I studied at Sapienza University of Rome and the University of Pisa, then completed a PhD in Robotics and AI at Sapienza, including a visiting period at Carnegie Mellon University.
One question has followed me since those studies: how can a machine, a single robot or a whole fleet, be given intelligent behavior that lets it learn and reason about how to act in a complex world? That question carries others. What do we mean by intelligent? What gives an entity that attribute? Will we ever instill that trait in a machine? I would like to spend my life contributing to the answers.
