In a nutshell
Passionate software developer with 15 years of professional experience, I have worked at different levels
of very small up to big size projects (> 1 million lines of code): user-interface (Web and native), networking
in client-server or 3-tier architectures, data processing algorithms and drivers on embedded systems
(multithreading, real-time OS, fieldbuses).
I have developed excellent bug-fixing and systems thinking skills over the years, and I am highly
motivated by technical challenges. I have 4+ years of experience in Agile (Scrum) development and at
ease with modern development tools and practices : Git, unit testing, sytematic code reviews, continuous
integration and delivery pipelines, DevOps mindset. Curious and fast learner, I quickly adapt to new
methodologies and technologies.
Having worked in various companies and work cultures, I have acquired excellent interpersonal and
communication skills. I am perfectly at ease in a diverse, multicultural team and I love to learn as much as
I love to teach. I strive in an organization where collaboration and learning happens every day, and where
my team is empowered to take ownership of the product or project it is working on.
