Riccardo Calligaro
Full Stack Developer
Hello 😄, I'm Riccardo, a full-stack developer from Italy with a strong focus on design and user experience. My passion for programming started when I was young, with simple HTML websites and Visual Basic back in 2013. Over time, I moved to mobile development and eventually to full-stack development. My educational background in computer science comes from attending an IT technical high school (I.T.I.S. Carlo Zuccante) from 2016 to 2021.
What drives me is creating products that not only work well but are also easy and enjoyable to use. I care deeply about how things look and feel, always aiming to build systems that people find beautiful and intuitive. Beyond the user-part, I also really enjoy designing all other aspects of a product, from architecture to requirements.
Throughout my career, I've worked with many different clients and often communicated directly with them, especially when I was doing freelance work. This experience has given me a solid understanding of how to take requirements and turn them into functional software. Currently, I work as a full-stack developer at CBSistemi Srl in Venice, where we focus on healthcare-related software.
I'm also a Canadian citizen, which allows me to work in Canada without a visa. I'm always open to new opportunities, so feel free to reach out to me!
