Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMichele Ceccacci is a software engineer and computer science student at the University of Bologna with five years of hands-on experience across backend development, DevOps and systems-level tooling. Currently interning at Amazon, he brings practical C++/Qt and Bash scripting experience from a past role and a focus on algorithms and data structures from his studies. An active open-source contributor, Michele has improved core Python projects like SymPy—adding type hints and refactoring symbolic routines—and built a robust CMakeCache parser for the tiny Tilck kernel, demonstrating care for build systems and maintainable code. Comfortable moving between high-level backend fixes and low-level build tooling, he combines academic rigor (26/30 average) with real-world engineering that prioritizes code quality and reproducibility.
