Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolGiacomo Benelli is a Presales Engineer and streaming solutions specialist with 11 years of experience designing, validating and integrating production-grade video streaming and distributed delivery systems for broadcasters, OTTs and vendors. He combines a deep software engineering pedigree—over eight years in C/C++ for real-time, multi-threaded systems, embedded/GPU platforms and a strong Python/container background—with hands-on pre-sales work from discovery to PoC and technical close.

Giacomo’s career spans embedded real-time systems to large-scale cloud and CDN architectures, and he routinely bridges engineering, product and commercial teams to turn ambiguous requirements into reliable deployments. Fluent in English and French and based in Florence, he brings international consulting experience and a knack for turning early-stage prototypes into production-ready solutions.
