Hello! 🏎️

I'm Francesco Zompanti

Software Engineer & Computer Science

About Me

Engineering motorsport speed with code and smart solutions.

Software Engineer in the ADAS division of Sapienza Fast Charge Formula Student Electric team of Sapienza University of Rome where I bring an autonomous race car to life.

Currently pursing a degree in Computer Science, I combine my passion for motorsport, software engineering, and data analysis to drive performance, both on the track and in the codebase to enhance the performances.

From developing algorithms for autonomous driving to analyzing telemetry data, I can improve codes and methods to enhance the software.

Projects

01

Client-Server Architecture in C Programming Language

Secure, multithreaded client-server file transfer in C: 64-bit XOR encryption, TCP sockets, concurrent connections, POSIX threads, robust protocol and error handling

CNetworkingLinuxOperating Systems
02

Preprocessor in C Programming Language

A modular C preprocessor for source code analysis: supports recursive #include expansion, comment removal, identifier validation, and detailed logging. Robust error handling and fully tested

03

Microservices Architecture

A simulated autonomous system using a microservices architecture, where each service (computer vision, SLAM, path planning, and high-level control) runs in its own Docker container and communicates via RabbitMQ. This repository demonstrates modular design and message-based communication in Python for educational and prototyping purposes.
