Full-stack engineer,
front to infrastructure.
I'm Stefano Russo (Samsey). I build and run the whole stack, from Angular front-ends and Spring Boot services to the Docker and Kubernetes they run on, including live client work in production.
What I work with
Follow a request down the stack: in at the front end, through the services behind it, into the data they sit on, and onto the infrastructure they run on.

Backend

Infra & tooling
Selected work
From a live e-commerce platform to university projects: production work alongside the things I built to learn.
Manzo Ricambi
A full rebuild of an appliance spare-parts store running since 1950. A custom WordPress + WooCommerce theme over a 20,000+ product catalog, with live search autocomplete, multi-language and a built-from-scratch dark mode.
Co-developer
Custom theme
& storefront
WASAPhoto
A photo-sharing app with a full social layer: follows, likes, comments and a personal timeline. Vue.js on the front, a Go REST API on the back.
Exposure Fusion
An implementation of Tom Mertens' Exposure Fusion algorithm, blending bracketed shots into one well-exposed image. Written in C++ with OpenCV.
Simple Botnet
A minimal botnet built to study command-and-control: a Flask server orchestrating Python clients. Coursework, to understand the attacker's side.
FFA: Free For All
A Free-For-All game mode for a Minecraft (Spigot 1.15.2) server, with persistent player stats stored in MySQL or SQLite.
Let's build
something together.
Based in Italy (CET), I read every message and reply within a day. Got something to build, or just want to talk shop?
