Fabrizio Sgura

Fabrizio Sgura

I embarked on my programming journey at the tender age of 12, delving into Basic and Assembler for Sinclair and Commodore machines in the early 80s, laying a foundation for my future career. In the late 80s, during college, I explored PC architecture, 8088, MSDOS, and Borland tools like Turbo C and Turbo Pascal. In 1990, I expanded my knowledge into Mainframe, UNIX systems, OS2, and IBM PC DOS, and ventured into Apple machines using BNC hardware network cards. Academic pursuits provided insights into IBM and Olivetti PCs, featuring 286 and 386 Intel processors, and enterprise solutions like the IBM s390. My programming repertoire grew to include Delphi, Turbo C++, MS Visual C, and Visual Basic. I honed skills in Turbo Assembler, and navigating tools like Turbo Profiler and Turbo Debugger. Synthesizing programming and electronics, I integrated expertise with PICS and Atmel 8048/8051 microcontrollers, developing circuits. After my studies, I joined Alleanza Assicurazioni, maintaining internal accounting software. Assuming roles as a developer and system administrator, I focused on evolving control software for parking services, emphasizing hardware programming and microcontroller circuit design. The pinnacle was a server-based C++ application on a SCO Unix system, integrating with Ball and COBOL. Operators used offline terminals, transferring data to the central server via serial ttyS0/9600 based on the MAX RS232. This laid the foundation for my role with OTI OnTrackInnovations Ltda., my last real electronics experience. Since then, I switched to a full information technology experience, enjoying the constant evolution of IT systems and technologies, programming languages, being a hungry learner and a proficient engineer. Scaling and flexibility are my passions. My job is my favorite game.
