Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMariano Finochietto is a founder and engineer with 13 years of experience building web and distributed systems, blending hands-on full‑stack development (JavaScript, PHP, C++, SQL) with research in distributed real‑time and imaging systems. He holds advanced engineering training from ESIEE Paris and a PhD focus on IoT and opportunistic networks, and has recently conducted postdoctoral research at the University of Pittsburgh, signaling a strong bridge between academia and product delivery. Mariano has led engineering teams and startups—serving as CTO and board member at an AgTech company and now founding plugit.chat—while also contributing as a PM at Canonical, demonstrating versatility across technical leadership and product management. His early startup earned multiple entrepreneurship awards in Argentina, reflecting an ability to turn prototypes into recognized ventures. Not always obvious from his roles is a long-standing interest in low-level C++ systems (Qt, Boost, CppCMS) alongside UX-minded front-end work, which gives him rare full‑stack depth from device-level to user experience.
