👋 Ciao, I'm Gabor Galazzo — Dreamer & Project Developer
I turn wild ideas into working software.
TechMagician 🧙♂️ Software engineer, lecturer, startup founder and self-certified TechMagician 🧙♂️ from Alessandria, Italy. I spent the last 4 years shipping production software for global discrete manufacturing — leading Guala Closures' MES, IRIS, across plants in Poland, the UK, Mexico and India, with deep SAP and IIoT (ThingsBoard) expertise. Now I'm building something new. 👀
🎭 And when the laptop closes, the curtain rises: I'm also an actor and singer — systems need logic, emotions need a stage. →

Evento Framework
The Java framework to develop RECQ systems — Reactive, Event-driven, CQRS architectures with event sourcing. Open source, documented and battle-tested in production. The theory behind it was presented at QualITA'23 and formalized in my research — see Papers & talks below. 🎓
Thoth Studio
The enterprise evolution of my open-source Thoth: an API-first cloud platform for mission-critical industrial labeling and printing. Template designer, data pipelines, print-fleet monitoring and audit trails — bridging ERP and MES with the factory floor.
IRIS — Guala Closures MES
The Manufacturing Execution System I helped design and lead for 4 years: 30 plants over 5 continents, 3000+ connected machines streaming real-time data, deep SAP integration (PP, MM, SM, QM). Production software for discrete manufacturing, at scale.
X-Report
Pipelines that generate reports with a visual description of every extraction and transformation phase — ETL you can actually see and explain.
jAPP
A StartAPP built in 48 hours. From idea to working product in one weekend — the story is on Medium.
Where I've been 🗺️
Head of Software Engineering — 🤫 Stealth Project
Leading software engineering for something new at the intersection of explainable AI, ontologies, reasoning, process mining and LLMs — rooted in my MSc studies at UPO. I'm guiding the whole journey from theory to production-grade software. Stay tuned. 👀
Head of Software Engineering
Shaped the digital transformation of a global manufacturing group: aligned technology vision with business strategy at C-level, drove distributed systems for connected factories and IoT, predictive maintenance, real-time production observability, Big Data analytics, and scaled global engineering teams.
Staff Software Engineer — Technical Lead
Technical leadership on IRIS, Guala's Manufacturing Execution System: coaching a distributed team of engineers, rolling out production software on-site across plants in Poland, the UK, Mexico and India, and building deep expertise in discrete manufacturing and SAP (PP, MM, SM, QM).
Senior Software Engineer — Full Stack & Solution Architect
Design and development of IRIS, an innovative MES: 30 plants over 5 continents and 20+ countries, 3000+ connected machines with real-time data, 360° integration with ERP, CRM and manufacturing tools. Challenge accepted! 💪
Lecturer — Applied Software Engineering for Web Distributed Systems
Guiding the next generation through the wild world of reactive and event-driven architectures — less theory, more "how to build epic stuff". CAP theorem included, Evento Framework in action.
Co-founder & CTO
An innovative platform connecting photographers and customers. Led R&D on distributed systems (Event Sourcing + CQRS + DDD with Axon Framework, Java, Spring), a hybrid Ionic/Angular app, and the cloud architecture on GCP with Kubernetes and Docker.
Software Engineer — Big Data R&D
Built a platform to help customers tame poor-quality data, with an event-driven approach focused on scalability.
Junior Software Engineer
Business workflow optimization with a full-stack toolbox: PHP (Laravel, Symfony), Java (Spring), C#/.NET, Angular, Vue, data warehouses and custom platforms, plus Salesforce development.

Things I've written ✍️
jAPP — 48h to build a StartAPP
How a Doer, a Dreamer and a TechMagician built a startup app in one weekend.
Read on Medium →Introduction to Spark with Python and Jupyter on Google Dataproc
Basic Spark concepts in a cloud environment, building a fully functioning application.
Read on Medium →Relational 🆚 Document 🆚 Graph
A three-part series hunting for the optimal data model: relational, document and graph, head to head.
Read on Medium →Actor & singer 🎭
Software isn't my only stage. I've always been a performer — actor and singer, in musicals and prose theatre. It's where the Dreamer part of me gets top billing.
Doppio Esclamativo
On stage with the Doppio Esclamativo company of Alessandria, directed by Jacopo Pelliccia — a company that makes theatre a meeting point of art, inclusion and accessibility.
By Faith Gospel Choir
Singing with By Faith, Alessandria's 30+ voice gospel choir directed by Claudiu Paduraru — Gospel Soul with rock and pop influences, on stages across Italy and Europe.

Hey, I'm Gabor. I'm a Doer, a Dreamer, a Technician — a TechMagician, precisely — a Startupper, and a performer: actor and singer on stage when I'm not shipping software.
