Full‑Stack Engineer • Educator • Technical Editor

Hi, I am Matteo Piccini

I build clean, fast, human friendly web apps with React, Python and Flask, and Ruby on Rails. I teach, mentor and review technical content. I learn quickly and adapt to the work in front of me.

Bio

Based in San Diego with long stretches in Italy. I teach software engineering and ship full stack projects. I have contributed as a technical editor on computer science and mathematics material. I studied mathematics at Sapienza University of Rome and now focus fully on software across the stack.

I like fast feedback loops and thoughtful UI details, and I care about helping people learn. Outside of work I played volleyball at a professional level and I am currently obsessed with Padel. I also love coffee and cooking and I bring that same care and attention to detail to my work.
