Curriculum vitae

My name is Lorenzo Celli, I am a computer scientist mainly interested in computer graphics and related fields. I was born and raised in Bologna, Italy, where I currently live and work.

Work experience
devDept Software C# developer
2020 - present
DevDept software is a software company based in Bologna, Italy, that develops CAD frameworks for .NET using C#. I joined the company as a work-study student in May 2020 and have had the opportunity to work on various projects, ranging from CNC simulators to tessellation algorithms.
ECMWF Python developer
2019
During April 2019 I took part, with the help of CINECA and CNR, to the summer of weather code, a programme run by ECMWF (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts) to develop innovative, open-source software. I worked with ECMWF once more in November 2019, this time to create some animations that were displayed at the annual AGU (American Geophysical Union) meeting.
CINECA Python developer
2018
During and after high school, I worked as an intern for CINECA (the largest Italian computing centre) as a Python programmer. My primary responsibility was to assist in the development of BVTK, an add-on for Blender that enables integration with the scientific visualization library VTK (the source is available here).
Chialab Web developer
2018
Chialab is a graphic design studio based in Bologna. I worked there as an intern for a few months during the summer of 2018 and 2019, mainly working as a web developer on two web applications that were never released. Starting out from the experience at Chialab, I developed the front-end and back-end of the website www.ilpuntoantico.it.
