Hey there, I'm Marta 👋
I'm an Italian software engineer currently working at .
Over the past eight years, I’ve worked across a range of companies and products, including ,
and
, building and scaling web applications in distributed teams.
I hold a MSc in Advanced Computer Science from the University of Manchester 🇬🇧 and a trilingual BSc from the UniBZ 🇮🇹, with an exchange semester at the College of Charleston 🇺🇸.
I love writing code both professionally and in my spare time. I’m at my best when I’m learning, experimenting with new technologies, and tackling complex problems.
Outside of tech, I’m a fiction writer ✍🏻, an avid bookworm 📚, an oboist and alto singer 🎶, and a travel photographer 📷.
While I have a solid foundation in both frontend and backend development, my focus and passion are firmly in full-stack engineering. I enjoy working across the stack, from designing APIs and data models to building intuitive, well-crafted user interfaces.
My experience spans multiple languages — including Java, Kotlin, Python and TypeScript — and frontend frameworks such as React and Angular. Recently, I’ve been working extensively in the Node.js ecosystem, using Next.js with an OpenAPI-based backend and MongoDB, as well as AstroJS to build fast, content-driven websites.
Alongside development, I’ve been deepening my interest in UI and UX, learning to design interfaces in Figma and to use Tailwind CSS effectively to build accessible, cohesive layouts.
Appetize.io 2.0
In early 2025, the company I work for decided to redesign its marketing website. The previous version was visually appealing but too playful for our business-focused audience. The new appetize.io was rebuilt almost from scratch, embracing a more dynamic and modern design. We leveraged the latest web technologies to enhance speed, accessibility, and SEO, ensuring a polished and professional experience tailored to our users.
All-Star Advent of Code
Advent of Code is a yearly event offering Christmas-themed coding challenges. After completing the 2020 event, I decided to tackle puzzles from previous years. Thanks to these I've gained proficiency in Kotlin and refined my problem-solving skills, and I'm quite proud of my shiny 500 stars ⭐. As a side project, I developed an API automating class setup for daily challenges, fetching input data, and updating my progress on the Readme.
