Currently Working at Trust Up on the EU-Funded CERTIFY Research Project, an initiative aimed at defining a methodological, technological, and organizational approach to managing the IoT security lifecycle. My role involves the implementation of an IoT embedded node based on RISC-V at both the hardware and software levels.Some of the exciting work I’ve been involved in includes:• Designing and implementing a hardware extension for the CV32E40S RISC-V microcontroller to support a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), similar to ARM TrustZone, to enhance security.• Designing and implementing the firmware that enables the Trusted Execution Environment. I draw inspiration from real-time operating systems and small RISC-V Linux kernels for OS programming, as well as Intel SGX for the concept of Secure Enclaves.• Building a TLS 1.2-like network library in C for secure communication between bare-metal resource constrained IoT systems.This role is allowing me to gain lot of expertise in RISC-V architecture, embedded systems, network security, and overall cybersecurity principles.

Architected and realized marketing automation solution for clients using Adobe Campaign.

I founded a one-man company, offering a SaaS platform in the Italian market that enabled Facebook users to advertise their products in an innovative way by leveraging groups, bypassing high advertising fees from the network.I was responsible for both the technical and managerial aspects of the business.Technical:• Developed the WordPress site and integrated the work of contractor developers,• Managed hosting solutions, including VPS and dedicated servers,• Integrated payment gateways such as PayPal and Stripe.Managerial:• Handled customer acquisition and retention,• Provided customer support,• Led the entire marketing strategy.While the company was operational, I successfully acquired over 1,000 customers. The project was permanently paused in 2018 to fully commit to my engineering studies.
