Hey, I'm Alfonso 👋🏻
Tech Lead @ Nearform
I solve problems, sometimes by writing code, other times by talking to people. Based in Italy 🇮🇹
🚀 My Side Projects
For me, Software Engineering is not just a job, it's a deep passion. I dedicate a lot of my free time to building side projects around ideas and technologies I care about. It's how I learn, experiment, and have fun while creating useful things.
🧠 The Intentional Engineer
A collection of insights for building not just better software, but a better life. Each chapter explores how to grow with purpose in tech — from mindset and health to communication, finance, and long-term career strategy. A guide to engineering your path with clarity and intention.
🐢🚀 Node.js Sandbox MCP Server
Run JavaScript securely in disposable Docker containers using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This powerful sandbox installs dependencies on the fly, supports persistent sessions, and enables AI workflows, scraping, charting, and much more.
🔁 JAWE – Just Another Workflow Engine
JAWE is an experimental and extensible workflow engine built around Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs). It supports custom plugins, dynamic data, and multiple triggers like HTTP and cron. Built for learning, not. It's a powerful way to explore workflow orchestration in Node.js.

Talks
I love sharing what I learn during my journey as an engineer through tech talks around Europe.
Every time I speak at a conference, I also get the chance to learn from so many brilliant minds and inspiring speakers. It’s one of the best parts of this job.
