Who Am I?

Hi, I’m Marco Molteni—a Java and Angular consultant with a passion for building robust, scalable solutions and motivating teams to deliver their best. With over two decades of experience, I’ve worked as a technical consultant for financial institutions and governments in 8 countries, helping them modernize their systems, migrate legacy applications, and adopt cutting-edge technologies.

I contributed as Expert for the Java Community Process (Bean Validation), have been a speaker at conferences like JavaZone and Voxxed, and am fluent in four languages (English, Deutsch, Italiano, Français)—perfect for international projects and cross-cultural collaboration.

When I’m not building software solutions, you’ll find me sharing insights on my blog, marmo.dev, contributing to open-source projects, or producing video tutorials on YouTube.
