Filippo Taiuti โ€” Software Engineer

Florence, Italy ยท in tech since 1997

I build backend services and distributed systems, with a focus on the things that surface in production rather than in tutorials: reliability, performance, and graceful failure. My path started in IT infrastructure โ€” servers, networks, monitoring, on-call โ€” and that operational mindset still shapes how I write code today.

Currently

  • ๐Ÿ›  Building โ€” distributed web platforms (production work)
  • ๐ŸŽฎ Shipping โ€” Kotlin rewrite of an Android puzzle game heading to Google Play
  • ๐ŸŽ“ Studying โ€” Informatics @ UnitelmaSapienza (BSc, in progress)

Featured projects

  • jimpossiblemission โ€” 2D Java/Swing platformer designed as an in-depth showcase of object-oriented design patterns: MVC, Strategy, Command, Flyweight, and reflection-based view dispatch across ~117 classes. UML diagrams and benchmarked stream pipelines included.
  • Block1To9-Android โ€” Number-merging puzzle (2018 Java prototype) with an original "special move" diagonal-unlock mechanic. Kotlin rewrite for Google Play in progress.
  • PersonalLibraryAndroidApp โ€” Android book tracker (2018) with ISBN barcode scanning and dual-source metadata (Google Books + Open Library). Java snapshot today, Kotlin/Compose rewrite on the roadmap.
