Building modern web and API solutions with Angular & .NET

Antonio shows a very good understanding of the core concepts in .NET and Angular and applies them confidently in real tasks. I like that when he faces a problem, he looks for the root cause and proposes solutions that are clean, optimal, and maintainable. It’s clear that he works in a disciplined and consistent way, which is extremely important when developing more complex functionalities. He is also proactive — he asks precise questions when something isn’t clear, and that speeds up the work of the entire team. It stands out that even as a junior he approaches his tasks as production-ready work — with attention to architecture, validations, and code quality. He also often goes beyond the scope of the task and proposes small improvements that genuinely increase the value of the product.

Antonio is a very intelligent software engineer. I had the pleasure of working closely with him on complex projects over the course of a year. Each project we worked on revealed the same pattern of strengths: Curiosity - quickly deconstructs unfamiliar codebases by asking the right “what” and “why” questions. That allowed us to address and connect the gaps within the infrastructure. Growth mindset - knows exactly how to manage his time for learning. He is very knowledgeable of technical trends, improvements and patterns. Problem-solving - works fast and efficiently. His analytical skills helped a ton in situations where issues were not very obvious and debugging was not possible. Leadership - knows how to communicate clearly, motivate people and make confident decisions to keep the project's momentum moving forward. Proactiveness - he does not wait for opportunities to happen, he creates them. He will actively reach out to people and take the necessary actions required to help the team. Teachable - has no poisonous ego. Engages peers at every skill level and shares knowledge while remaining open to new ideas and perspectives. He is widely respected among peers and Junior team members look up to him as a trusted source of wisdom and advice. I am truly impressed by the depth of his knowledge and abilities for someone at his stage of career. With these strengths, I wholeheartedly recommend Antonio and can guarantee that he will be a strong force in raising the performance of any engineering team.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Antonio on several major modernization projects, including migrating legacy applications from .NET Framework 4 to .NET 8 and transitioning from Angular.js to Angular 18. Throughout these challenging initiatives, he consistently demonstrated strong technical ability, great work ethic, and a proactive attitude. He quickly became a reliable team member who wasn’t afraid to dive into complex problems. He actively explored new technologies, stayed up to date with modern development trends, and was always eager to learn and improve. His enthusiasm and curiosity made him a valuable contributor to our team. Beyond his technical skills, he is highly collaborative and communicates clearly. I’m confident he will continue growing rapidly as a developer, and I strongly recommend him to any team looking for a dedicated and forward-thinking software engineer.
