In other teams I’ve contributed to major redesigns, product specs and design systems. I use prototyping as a mindset to rapidly test ideas and move quickly. Often I dress the part of project manager and design-development facilitator.

About

Hello, nice to meet you!
I’m Riccardo and for the past 10 years I’ve been shaping interactive digital products.

In my work I focus on making customers happy and help businesses grow. Today I’m more interested in a product that is informative and helpful rather than a product that looks pretty.

I lead the development of digital products from concept to implementation:

  • translate business requirements into actionable technical specifications;
  • oversee the design and development of user-centered interfaces and functionalities;
  • guide cross-functional teams (design, development, QA) throughout the development lifecycle;
  • monitor key performance indicators and report on project progress.

With a strong understanding of digital product development, I guide cross-functional teams to bridge the gap between design and technology, delivering seamless and engaging user experiences.

In my spare time I love going climbing and being outdoor exploring the mountains.
