Francesco Licchelli

// About Me

My name is Francesco Licchelli, I'm a software developer with backend development experience in the banking sector. I have a passion for creating performant and elegant software solutions: I'm always looking to improve. I graduated in March 2025 with a Computer Science degree from the University of Bologna, where I broadened my skills ranging from organizational and management aspects to building operating systems, enterprise backends, and full-stack development. The extensive theoretical Computer Science knowledge gained during my studies gives me the ability to tackle complex problems with a pragmatic approach.

My favourite programming languages are C, Java, and Python. GNU/Linux has been the only operating system on my devices for several years — I especially appreciate its philosophy, speed of use, and customizability.

Software Developer - Banking Sector

JavaSpring BootMongoDBJenkinsSplunkServiceNowBitbucket

Backend development across two projects in the banking sector, managing ~8 microservices built with Java Spring Boot and MongoDB. Feature development: analysis of functional specifications, impact assessment on existing services, implementation of new REST endpoints and business logic following SOLID principles and design patterns, unit testing, code review via pull request, and deployment through Jenkins pipelines. Full autonomy on a smaller project, handling the entire development lifecycle independently. Direct interaction with the banking client for requirements clarification and technical alignment. Application maintenance with log analysis (Splunk) and incident management (ServiceNow). Version control with Bitbucket (Git).

Curricular Internship - MON5 S.R.L.

PythonScapyPyp0fNmapNetworking

Development of two OS fingerprinting tools in Python. Active scanner (AOSD): crafts and sends TCP/UDP/ICMP probes via Scapy, matches responses against nmap's OS database, and returns ranked results with confidence scores. Passive scanner (POSD): sniffs network traffic with Pyp0f to identify operating systems without sending any packets — fully undetectable. Pair programming, Linux capabilities (cap_net_raw), network stack analysis.
