Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichele Costabile is a seasoned solutions architect and software engineer with roots in low-level systems programming dating back to the 1980s, who now designs secure, large-scale banking infrastructures and modern web and mobile backends. He led kernel and device-driver development at Olivetti, built the first mail server for Italia Online, and directed a team that produced a widely used COBOL compiler—experience that underpins his expertise in reliability and performance. At SIA/Nexi he architected the PKI-based key delivery network for transaction messaging, marrying cryptography with distributed systems at production scale. He also creates creative, algorithmic projects—such as an early face-in-painting museum app that performed projection and color-transfer transforms long before consumer tools existed—and maintains minimalist JavaScript open-source work. Comfortable from assembler to JavaScript and mobile, he blends historical depth with pragmatic modern engineering. Based in Milan, he brings a rare combination of kernel-level instincts and high-level architecture for secure, resilient systems.
