Hi, I'm Giovanni

Developer Advocate & Builder

Senior Developer Advocate at Amazon and builder at heart. I believe the title "software engineer" is giving way to "builder" — generalists who cross disciplines, connect dots across domains, and ship with agentic AI as a force multiplier. Based in London, I work across mobile, TV, agentic AI, and whatever new tech catches my eye.
