Daniele P.

Senior mobile engineer with 20+ years of experience. I build production mobile apps that scale — including Futbol24, a livescore app with 10M+ downloads on Google Play, native iOS + Android, with a custom realtime backend serving thousands of requests per second. WHAT I DO I take mobile products from idea to live in the store, end-to-end: • Architecture, data layer, API design • React Native + Expo as default — with native iOS (Swift, Obj-C) and Android (Kotlin) when the work needs to drop down to the bridge • Backend & data: Node.js, NestJS, PHP-FPM, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, ActiveMQ • Edge & performance: custom Varnish VMOD in C — the kind of work that gets a 99.7% cache hit ratio on dynamic content • Push at scale: APNs + FCM directly (I run my own push infrastructure for Futbol24, no Firebase wrapper) • App Store & Play Store submission — TestFlight, EAS Build, store assets, review escalations EXPERIENCE I co-founded Gluak Srl, an Italian software studio. Products currently in production: • Futbol24 — soccer livescore, 10M+ downloads on Google Play • Notiflow — proprietary push notification platform (used by Futbol24) • Splace — social platform for creators (Next.js 16, NestJS, PostgreSQL) • Microprogress — project documentation tool Previously CTO at Beeweeb, a mobile-focused software agency. We built apps and platforms for Vodafone (Italy, Germany, UK, global), the H3G / Three group (Sweden, Norway, UK, Australia), and Intuit. We shipped the first iPhone app for Vodafone Italia — on the App Store at the day-one iPhone launch in Italy. I've been shipping mobile code since the Symbian era, before app stores existed. The fundamentals haven't changed: ship something that works, ship something users actually open, ship something that doesn't fall over at scale. WORK WITH ME IF • You need a React Native / Expo app built right, from scratch or refactoring an existing codebase • You have a mobile app that's slow, crashes, or doesn't scale — and you want it diagnosed and fixed • You need real push notification infrastructure (not a Firebase tutorial) • You want senior engineering ownership, not a junior writing tickets I'm based in Italy. I write code, ship code, and own the result.
