Nicolò D'Addabbo

Software Engineer. Berlin-based.

Currently working on Applied AI at Tesla, across software engineering, data engineering, design, and AI agents. End to end on everything, from business and design to development.

I studied Computer Science and Engineering between Milan, Barcelona, and Bologna. I started building things right after high school by going door to door in my hometown, Rimini, asking local businesses if they needed a website. A few said yes. That led to better gigs, and eventually to more complex mobile apps and internal tools. Along the way, I've developed a strong interest in building software that's genuinely useful to people.

I've been a musician, Ultimate Frisbee player, and event organizer.
