Summary
Marco Somma is a Tech Lead and multidisciplinary software engineer with 12+ years building production AI systems, mobile apps, VR experiences and developer tooling from early-stage startups to scale. He combines hands-on prototyping and architecture—having co-founded Abzu and led development of interpretable ML tooling (QLattice/Feyn)—with product-focused delivery of grounded, compliance-oriented legal AI and open-source agent orchestration (OrKa). Comfortable across JS, Python and C#, Marco excels at turning cross-domain ideas (biology, robotics, behavioral science and music) into pragmatic prototypes and reliable products, and he frequently ships full-stack systems that emphasize traceability and evaluation. Based in Barcelona, he’s a believer in flat/teal organizations and ownership-driven teams, and even invents Arduino robots in the early hours—evidence of a persistent maker mindset that fuels his creative engineering.
