Resourceful full-stack developer with a heart for purpose-driven tech, skilled in Ruby on Rails and building digital solutions for real-world problems.

What makes me unique as a developer is the blend of purpose, adaptability, and real-world impact that drives my work. I didn’t get into software development simply to build cool apps — I started coding to solve problems that matter to people. From streamlining administrative systems for local government in Zimbabwe to creating an online marketplace that helps small businesses sell car parts more effectively, my projects are always rooted in tangible value and usability. One of my recent accomplishments is developing a digital change-of-use permit system for Harare City Council using Ruby on Rails. What makes this special isn’t just the tech stack — it’s the fact that I took a bureaucratic, paper-heavy process and transformed it into something efficient, trackable, and accessible. It’s a small but meaningful contribution toward digital transformation in a context where it's needed most. I’m passionate about building platforms that empower communities, particularly in underserved markets. Whether it’s launching PartsToGo, a growing car parts marketplace in Zimbabwe, or conceptualizing platforms like TendersZimbabwe, I love taking on the kind of challenges where impact matters more than hype. I bring not only the technical skills — full-stack development, systems thinking, clean and maintainable code — but also a strong sense of empathy and purpose to every line I write. I thrive where others may hesitate: limited resources, unclear paths, and bold ideas. My strength lies in turning vision into product, especially when the goal is to make life easier, more efficient, and more just for real people.

Expert fullstack engineer 10+ years

I’m a fullstack web engineer with a decade of experience in breaking down product ideas into software bets that I quickly validate with customer interviews. I consulted as the most senior fullstack engineer and tech lead at (one of) the oldest Ruby on Rails shops in the world, Lunar Logic. I’m fluent with several technologies, but focus on business outcomes—software is just a side effect. 🎯 Successful (software) bets 🎯 - Led Hypoguide.ch (fintech) to a big exit - Rescued OrderNova.com (oms + ecommerce) from failed launch to recurring revenue - Modernized AirCasting.org (big data + dataviz) without ever stopping for a rewrite 💻 Tech 💻 Ansible / Heroku / AWS Ruby on Rails / Hotwire Node TypeScript React Elm PostgreSQL ⭐️ Testimonials ⭐️ "Riccardo can optimize for much better performance without needing to overhaul the foundation, even when the foundation is kind of crumby: - He’s knowledgeable, willing to do the research, good at doing research, and full of good ideas. - He never lets perfect be the enemy of good enough. - He relentlessly made forward progress while patching things up along the way. - He’s always reassessing, considering the best direction forward. I would absolutely recommend Riccardo! Because he’s both extremely competent and inventive as a coder and a good communicator, project manager, and leader. Only hire Riccardo if you're willing to give him some creative control, because otherwise what's the point of hiring someone with his talents?" Michael Heimbinder Founder & Executive Director @ HabitatMap/AirCasting === “You have always made me feel like we could do anything whenever we worked together, it was only a matter of time.” Mateusz Luterek Ruby Developer @ Shopify === “The way Riccardo approaches complex problems is highly structured. Before setting out to tackle an issue, he sits down to analyze it first so that no effort is wasted. Thanks to this we could be sure that the plan that we set out will have a positive impact.” Rafał Cieślak Software Developer @ Teleport === “I am certain that Riccardo would be a great asset to any team. Here's what struck me most while working with him: high technical expertise, passion for the work he does, responsibility & accountability, uniquely high levels of productivity, dedication, clear and respectful communication.” Shadi Rezek Co-Founder & Software Engineer @ Knapsack
