CTO & Technical Director

Gianluca Parnisari

I build high-fidelity simulation systems and intelligent software architectures for aerospace, defense, and advanced training applications.

About

Hello! I’m Gianluca, a software engineer turned technical leader with over twelve years of experience in simulation systems, mission-critical software, and full-stack development. As CTO & Technical Director, I lead the engineering of next-generation simulation platforms for aerospace, defense, and mobility.

My background spans C++, C#, TypeScript, and React architectures, cloud-native solutions (AWS, Kubernetes, EKS), and real-time simulation technologies such as HLA/DDS, CIGI, and Unreal Engine. I enjoy bridging system architecture, applied physics, and modern software design.

Focus areas

Simulation & Systems Engineering

Development of real-time simulation frameworks, flight models, and image generators for aerospace and defense.

Software Architecture

Designing modular, scalable software ecosystems using microservices, event-driven architectures, and DevOps pipelines.

Leadership & Innovation

Coordinating multidisciplinary teams, driving product strategy, and integrating AI, digital twins, and cloud platforms into complex systems.
