Luca Dei Zotti is an engineering manager and hands-on software engineer with 11 years’ experience building telco core network products and, more recently, fintech systems for insurance, accounting and payments. He combines deep protocol and distributed-systems expertise (3G/4G/5G core, DIAMETER, Erlang/Elixir) with practical experience in Rust, Kubernetes and AWS, and has been the security reference in application stacks. Luca helped scale a startup from 5 to 120+ people and now leads engineering at Prima while still contributing to open-source Elixir tooling and test automation. He’s equally comfortable designing microservices and mentoring teams, and brings an unusual blend of technical rigor and people-focused leadership informed by years as a martial-arts instructor. Passionate about health-tech, human rights and environmental projects, he prefers using Elixir/Erlang and Rust where they truly fit.
