Tommaso Marcelli is an engineering manager based in Milan with 11 years of experience building back-end services in Node.js and Ruby and shipping SPA front-ends with modern tooling. He currently leads engineering at Klarna after CTO and technical leadership roles in startups, blending hands-on coding with team and product stewardship. Comfortable with cloud deployments and DevOps tooling, he also brings a practical appreciation for UI/UX that keeps product quality user-centered. His career began in academic research and teaching—holding a PhD in Chemistry and multiple postdoctoral roles—which informs a data-driven, experimental approach to problem solving. That uncommon shift from computational chemistry to software leadership gives him fluency in technical depth and cross-disciplinary communication. He’s known for turning complex requirements into pragmatic, maintainable systems while mentoring engineers through growth and delivery challenges.
