Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAlessandro Cabassa is a Software Engineer based in Berlin with four years of experience building high-performance systems across domains from query processing at AWS Redshift to simulation and industrial automation. He holds an MSc in Computer Science (thesis on Compression of Large Web Graphs) and brings deep practical skills in C++, Python, and Java with a focus on program efficiency, data compression, information retrieval, and compilers. At Pilatus and E80 he improved observability, test coverage, and concurrency for complex simulators and industrial drivers, while at Snowflake and AWS he worked on cloud-scale data processing. An active LeetCode contributor, he routinely authors and refactors C++ algorithm implementations, signaling strong algorithmic problem-solving and attention to correctness. Colleagues describe him as a continuous learner who pairs research-informed interests with pragmatic engineering to squeeze performance from both code and systems.
