  • Tools - Git, Vagrant, VirtualBox, Docker, SaltStack, Nextflow, Environment Modules
  • Operating Systems - Linux, MacOS X, Windows
    • Organizational Skills
  • fast learning - in job environment I was often faced with the need to learn new things and I always managed to do it in a fast and comprehensive way
  • problem solving - I have a logical and analytical mind which helped me every time I had to identify and solve problems
  • self organization - I have always beed used to plan my work in an independent way. In addition, working in project-oriented environments, I had to organize myself in order to respect the project requirements and deadlines
    • Social Skills
  • team spirit - I actively participated and worked with enthusiasm in research teams and project groups
  • communication - during my work experience and education I had often the need to explain concepts and present works to others, formally and informally, thus developing good and structured communication abilities. Speaking to various audiences, I also managed to talk about technical aspects with a proper language, depending on the listener
