👤
SeniorFederico Giovagnoli is a seasoned frontend-focused software leader and founder with 13 years of experience building modern web experiences and developer tooling. As CEO of Red Sneakers Studio and a Senior Frontend Engineer at Hudson's Bay Company, he has led migrations from legacy stacks to Vue/webpack architectures, assembled core teams, and shipped large-scale, dynamic storefronts and internal platforms. He pairs obsessive UI craftsmanship with full-stack fluency—contributing to projects like the Tauri/Rust/Svelte-powered GitButler where he fixed diff logic, added discard-change features, and improved UI behaviors. Based in Rome but formerly operating from Dublin, he prioritizes permanent frontend roles and brings an unusually rigorous, OCD-driven attention to component design, API definitions, and developer experience.
