From unit tests to performance evaluations, I've championed the importance of comprehensive testing, recognizing its pivotal role in crafting resilient, bug-free software. Beyond mere functionality, tests empower us to build applications that are not just robust, but also easily maintainable. Performance lover: I'm passionate about performance optimization. Whether it's identifying and fixing N+1 queries, optimizing database indexes, or fine-tuning JVM settings, I love diving into performance challenges. Each problem is unique, and I enjoy finding tailored solutions to ensure systems run smoothly and efficiently.

I'm a dev, a CTO, an entrepreneur and a geek. As a dev I first developed in python and C during 12 years. I developed a network security solution used by 3 millions of people. Then I switched to ruby and rails in 2014 first for a startup then as a freelance. I helped bootstrap several startups (moka.care, Watura, Me and you too, Eben Home) and reinforced teams in big companies (Doctolib, Richemont, EDF) At Squadracer, I grew the team from solo freelancer to 18 people from 2018 to 2022. Post covid was a difficult time and the team was reduced to 4 people. I was also a CTO since 2004, I'm attached to empowering people through agile and opal organization. It allows me to create an amazing team while keeping a lot of time to continue being a dev. I have a no ego policy allowing me to work in whatever position my skills are useful. I can help a lot off people by being a jack of all trade: I can do dev : linux system, back, front, devops but also CRM (hubspot, salesforce), management, product. As a geek, I also love IOT and telephony. When I was a student I had 3 vlan, 2 internet connections, 3 telephony providers. I used my voip phone in one room to turn of my screen in the other room. I reversed my electric shutter with an oscilloscope, and built a home automation center.

🌱 1.5 years experience as a developer (Permanent, Entrepreneurship, Freelance) Depozen: Permanent contract, I was focused on notifications and API integrations. Youclub (activities/clubs search engine): Initiated by my frustration with inefficient Google searches for local clubs, I envisioned and developed a dedicated app using a Ruby GraphQL API and React Native client, with web views integrated into the Rails codebase. Challenges : finding an API to query for to seed my app. Ensure data integrity between models and graphQL types. Challenges were about improving performance of query . Still improves to make. Despite its potential, it was a commercial failure, leading me to flush the database and remove it from Heroku. I later redeployed it in its MVP state for demonstration purposes. Co-founded Musicast: A platform for music competition organizers. After my co-founder departed due to loss of faith in the project, I continued alone, securing early clients before coding the entire SaaS from scratch. This included features like user roles, workflows, AI capabilities, and a dynamic planning generator which I believe is my most complex work due to its customizable settings. I chose not to commercialize it as handling customer support, marketing, sales, product design, and coding alone was overwhelming, particularly in a niche market. This led me to resume my job search. Recently: Diving deeper into Ruby methods to better understand how it works under the hood. Last very interesting moment was re-coding the belongs_to method in Rails with TDD. Current Learning: Diving into Swift during my free time to expand my mobile development skills. (Stanford course) Interests: I have a thing for projects with a mobile component. I am keen on tackling larger-scale projects and deeper Rails functionalities, areas I haven’t explored in my personal projects. Improving performances is an area that I like too. I attend every Paris.rb and React Native Paris events. Career Aspirations: Looking for a collaborative team with structured processes, code reviews, and a senior mentor to further my growth.
