I’m Sebastiano, living and breathing technology since I was 4. I have always been fascinated by “how things work” and found in computers a way to get lost in the digital world and learn something new every day.
With an engineering background and a passion for design, my mission is to work at the frontier of technology to solve problems.
/ Work Experience
- Founded ED3SIGN to bring design and engineering under one roof, building innovative digital products.
- Working with clients and personal projects across the full product lifecycle, covering branding, development and marketing with a hands-on approach to every layer of the stack.
- Building with the latest AI technologies, delivering tailor-made solutions for businesses.
- Leading the technical vision of the platform connecting independent artists, Spotify playlists and curators.
- Designed and scaled the architecture from the very first MVP to a solid platform serving hundreds of thousands of artists, with monthly exchange volumes in the millions.
- Responsible for product design, system architecture and the design of the iOS and Android apps.
- Contributed to the fundraising journey, raising a total of €2M in capital.
- Bridging the gap between design and development, supervising projects every step of the way: from mockup design, to coding, all the way to production deployment.
- Coordinating small teams of 2-3 people within a full-remote position and flexible hours.
- Focus on user experience and frontend engineering.
- First large scale project I built from the ground up, starting with the very first logo idea, to branding, to an over-engineered web application.
- Owned the full lifecycle of the product, including its failure which has been a powerful life lesson. This project made me grow not only as a digital creator but as a human being.
- Worked on many aspects of software development: client briefings, website design and development, legacy code for Android / iOS apps, all the way to the systems side with server management, domain transfers, DNS configurations and email inboxes.
- I have developed my horizontal skills very early in my career.
/ Recent Projects
- Helped launch the vinyl record shop by designing and developing the internal management system and the e-commerce.
- Turned operational needs into clear flows for catalog, inventory, orders and online sales.
- Designed and developed the website, organizing content and course offering into a clear, responsive experience.
- Took care of the course presentation and the path towards contact and enrollment.
/ Talks & Conferences
- Talk for Computer Engineering students on the value of the mock-up as a communication tool: making software visually understandable to the client and turning an abstract idea into a concrete product vision before development.
