Andrea Di Menna is a Mobile Product Lead based in Rome with 14 years of experience designing and shipping client-server mobile solutions and leading Android teams. He combines hands-on engineering (from backend systems and telecom protocols to Android platform work) with product leadership, having progressed from senior developer to tech lead and now product lead at Immobiliare.it. Andrea has a strong interest in open data, semantic web and Big Data, and contributes to notable open-source projects such as DBpedia’s extraction framework, where he improved data integrity and URL handling. Practical and detail-oriented, he focuses on robust data processing and integration, often tackling edge cases like duplicate RDF types and overly long predicates that can undermine pipelines. Colleagues describe him as reliable, committed and curious—equally at home in protocol design, backend services and mobile product strategy.
