FranceWhat I'm looking for
I am an engineering manager and tech lead with over 15 years of hands-on software development, project management, and team leadership experience. I have led cross-functional teams, delivered complex billing and telecom projects, and driven security and performance improvements.
Recently I focused on trading bots and blockchain development, building high-performance arbitrage and delta-neutral bots, writing CosmWasm smart contracts in Rust, and administering cloud servers with containerized deployments.
I combine pragmatic DevOps automation and architecture skills with strong people management—recruiting, onboarding, career development, and Scrum facilitation—to deliver reliable, production-grade systems and foster engineering growth.
