Summary
Filippo De Santis is a Technical Lead with about 15 years of hands-on software development and roughly 20 years involved in the craft, currently leading engineering delivery at NearForm from Italy. He progressed through senior development and delivery architect roles, shaping cloud-native, web-focused solutions and coaching teams on pragmatic architecture and delivery practices. His background spans PHP and JavaScript ecosystems, Symfony and eZ Publish, and early systems work (including a Debian/OpenSwan VPN), giving him both legacy-system empathy and modern-stack fluency. Known for moving from deep implementation to technical leadership, he combines rigorous academic training from the University of Bologna with a steady track record of shipping production systems for e-commerce and consulting customers. Colleagues appreciate his balance of hands-on problem solving and mentorship, and his long tenure at NearForm highlights expertise in scaling teams as much as systems.
