# Stefano Amorelli > Staff+ Software Engineer, Open Source Contributor, and International Speaker specializing in Applied AI, Software Engineering, Cybersecurity, Software Architecture, and Cloud Technologies. Stefano Amorelli is a seasoned technology professional with extensive experience in software engineering, security research, and community engagement. Based in Estonia, he has contributed to numerous open source projects and spoken at international conferences including BSides, DroidCon, OWASP, and various AWS and DevOps community events. ## Background Growing up in a small town in Sicily, Italy, I developed a passion for coding at the age of 7. My first project was a cryptographic license protection system for a local firm, providing hands-on experience and the foundation of my career. This innate passion for technology has since led me to contribute to startups and scale-ups across North America and Europe. In the last 8 years of experience working in software, I elaborated a unique working protocol focused on mentoring and hands-on engineering leadership. I have led high-performing distributed teams and developed products across a wide range of technical stacks in FinTech, Artificial Intelligence, and Cybersecurity. The products I've built and contributed to serve 500k+ businesses, operating in critical environments, handling €50+ billion. ## Technical Environment Created my own operating system distribution based on Fedora Linux - highly-customized to allow coding at the speed of thought. ## Open Source Projects ### Maintainer #### SEC EDGAR MCP A SEC EDGAR MCP Server for financial intelligence applications.
