Edoardo Pedrotti

Led backend engineering across core domains (main backend, notifications, medical knowledge base, results processing), owning delivery quality, team growth, and engineering standards.

Signature Outcomes

Shipped a flexible, no-code membership platform (pricing, packages, duration), enabling commercial changes without engineering involvement and keeping membership tiers coherent over time.

Built a high-impact backend team through mentorship, coaching engineers into independent contributors and establishing onboarding documentation that enabled fast ramp-up.

Scaled the team from 2 → 5 engineers while maintaining delivery cadence and code quality; owned hiring pipelines and onboarding.

Partnered closely with Product during design to assess feasibility, sequence work, and make pragmatic trade-offs between speed, tech debt, and long-term maintainability.

Institutionalized testing and simplicity as defaults, enforcing high test coverage and a “simple-first” architecture approach.

Tech & Practices

Stack: Node.js (TypeScript), Express, PostgreSQL; microservices (Node & Go); event-driven async jobs.

Practices: Testing as a release gate, lightweight design reviews, iterative delivery, documentation-driven onboarding.

Compliance & Security: Led implementation of Privacy Officer recommendations (GDPR and German healthcare regulations).
