11 years of experience
Located in Montreal, Canada
With an open work permit
I speak English and French
Passionate computer scientist, more precisely full stack developer, and with extensive experience in agile methodologies, I put my skills at the service of startups or multinationals, in varied business fields during more than ten years.
I had the chance to join talented teams, following or not principles of so-called agile methodologies. I’ve worn several hats from lead developer to Scrum master in parallel to my development activities, and even CTO for a short period. But more than my solid experiences and development skills, I am adaptable and I’m always striving to do better.
Plus, I like to bring good vibes and best practices (tests, continuous integration, etc.) wherever I go, wherever I work!
As a technical lead, I guided the development team in modernizing the loan platform.
In the context of a product launch, I contributed to the development of the site allowing the very first orders to be taken. I also bootstrapped a back office to manage new customers, their orders or even the installation of their system.
During the merge with Salsify, I developed a brand new permissions management interface for clients, allowing them to finely choose "who" can modify which product, and how. I then had to develop the modification history, in order to make the screens and dashboard more intuitive and fluid.
While Qare was an outsider, I contributed to the development of their patient management interface. Subsequently, I was able to participate in the development of the online appointment booking interface, in order to convince more doctors to use the solution.
After a successful fundraising, Virtuo was able to offer me the opportunity to develop back-office building blocks and more particularly the management of damages related to their two thousand vehicles in order to optimize the costs linked to damages. I also developed integration with third-party rental sites, making Virtuo more visible and helping to increase bookings.
In a context of Frichti's expansion to several French cities, I mainly developed their delivery planning in order to manage a fleet of hundreds of delivery people, and the synchronization of customer data with various marketing tools in order to better identify and target their thousands of customers.
In a market where technical profiles are hard to find, I contributed to the development of a technical profile scoring tool capable of measuring the propensity of the latter to leave their current job, or not. I also developed a Chrome extension allowing the recruiter to save time and access the data and scoring of a profile from any LinkedIn page.
While Canal Plus was about to announce the launch of their brand new TV decoder, I participated in the development of the decoder interface, from the presentation and selection of channels, to the communication interface with the lower bricks of the decoder. The objective is to stand out from competitors by offering an intuitive, pleasing to the eye, and fluid interface.
In order to optimize and reduce the risks linked to its fleet of 700,000 vehicles, I developed the vehicle fleet management interface, the presentation of consolidated data in the form of diagrams, as well as communication with 700,000 vehicles.
In the middle of Linky "smart current meters" deployment, I participated in the development of the back-office for 34 million customers, in order to support each customer during the deployment of their new current meter.
