Building infrastructure
that doesn't break.

I'm Matteo, an IT Infrastructure Engineer based in Zürich with a passion for designing resilient, secure, and automated infrastructure environments. I thrive at the intersection of on-premises systems and cloud-native solutions.

From Active Directory to Azure hybrid cloud, from VMware clusters to PowerShell automation pipelines — I take ownership of the full infrastructure lifecycle. I believe that great infrastructure is invisible: it just works.

Outside of work, I enjoy contributing to open-source projects, staying up to date with cloud security trends, and exploring the Swiss alps. 🏔️
