Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDino Fancellu is a veteran software engineer and independent contractor with 35 years in commercial IT and over a decade specializing in Scala (12 years) and 25 years in Java. He runs Felstar Ltd and prefers remote, contract-only engagements outside IR35, bringing deep domain experience in XML, XSLT, XQuery and MarkLogic alongside financial messaging (FpML) and publishing systems. Dino has a proven track record delivering high-performance integrations and migrations for banks, media and government—examples include JPMorgan’s Operational Data Service, EMIR reporting at HSBC, and GDPR automation at The Guardian. Technically versatile, he combines functional Scala tooling (Akka, Cats, http4s) with legacy XML ecosystems and has authored XQuery-for-Scala projects and published on XML processing in Scala. Colleagues value his meticulous, ISTJ-style approach to reliable production systems and his ability to modernize complex pipelines without uprooting established operations. He is UK-based, BPSS-cleared for past government work, and explicitly asks not to be asked to relocate abroad.
