At Wasmer, I mostly work on (one of) the most popular WebAssembly runtime, with the objective of narrowing the efficiency gap between native and sandboxed execution. Here, I mantain code for three compiler backends: LLVM, Cranelift and an in-house compiler. I also lead efforts to implement Wasm proposals: one of the ones I'm most proud of is exception handling, which I implemented on all the platform that Wasmer supports, producing noticeable difference in execution speed for non-trivial programs such as PHP. During my time here, I had the chance to interact with the open source community revolving around Wasmer, managing user interactions and leading triages to respond to issues and review PRs created by users. I was also able to contribute to other open source projects such as V8, LLVM, WAMR, WASMI and more. I also manage releases and cross-platform pipelines to test and build Wasmer.

During my time at Boring Stuff Srl I worked in Rust, and I had the chance to rewrite important parts of our stack, used to implement ERP software for SMEs; noteworthy is a reverse proxy. I also had the chance to design an internal query language, implement it, and write a library to perform boolean optimization on programs in this query language.

I worked with various companies and individuals, on a number of heterogeneous tasks. These tasks included: setting up AI pipelines in Python; reviewing and rewriting Rust code for embedded systems for an Italian company producing custom medical devices, and building CI pipelines for this last company.
