My name is Beniamino, but you can call me Ben

Beniamino Marini Product Designer

Based in Berlin, born in Northern Italy in 1995. My tech journey started at age 3: playing Pokémon on an emulator or battling a math game in the terminal my dad built to keep me “balanced”.

Curiosity defines me. I’ve explored computer science, neuroscience, sociology, and design. Every field added a new way to understand people and systems.

With a background in web development and industrial automation, I approach complexity with care and curiosity. I like to bring order to chaos, not by control but by clarity.

Outside work, I move. Climb, skate, surf, walk. Always learning. Always curious.

When I’m quiet, I listen to Huberman Lab or make lo-fi beats no one really asked for.

Fun facts

  • I was born in a tiny town with more pigs than people. Not a metaphor.
  • I have 5 sisters, 1 brother and 16 nephews. Yes, family gatherings are loud.
  • I walk every day. At 19, I took it to the next level and walked the entire Camino de Santiago ~750 km on foot. No regrets (except for my blisters).
  • In 2024, Spotify told me I’m in the top 5% of users by played songs. Basically, I treat life like a personal movie soundtrack.
  • I’m 163 cm tall. Compact, efficient, and great at fitting into small spaces.
