Nicolò Mezzopera is a results-driven Software Engineering Manager with 11 years of experience leading frontend-focused teams through major releases and organizational change, currently at Metabase after managing Deploy and Pipeline Authoring at GitLab. He blends hands-on Vue/React development—contributing accessibility and mobile-first improvements to notable open-source projects like Vue Storefront and vue-leaflet—with a coaching leadership style that prioritizes collaboration, clear communication, and career growth for engineers. Comfortable shifting between technical refactors and product-facing priorities, Nicolò is known for reorganizing complex component codebases and migrating libraries to modern frameworks while keeping the bigger-picture roadmap in sight. Based in Rome, he brings practical delivery discipline from startups to large distributed teams, and—less obviously—keeps team morale grounded with a personable, dog-loving management approach.
