Youssef El Gharbaoui
@youssefelgharbaoui
I design secure, scalable cloud systems and lead full-stack engineering teams.
What I'm looking for
I've delivered architecture and engineering work for Eurostar, Cognizant clients including BNP Paribas and TotalEnergies, and Le Groupe La Poste. I currently work as a freelance Senior TypeScript Developer, DevOps professional, and Lead AI at Eurostar.
At Cognizant, I led a Scrum team building a scalable financial system for BNP Paribas with Angular and Java, integrated Salesforce with Node.js, React, and AWS, and designed a secure offline Angular application using Bluetooth. At La Poste, I led the design and development of a horizontally scalable Identity Provider based on Node.js, OAuth2, OpenID Connect, Kubernetes, and Docker.
My path began as a curious coder and grew into a focus on systems that are functional, thoughtfully designed, secure, and built to last. I enjoy turning technical challenges into meaningful products while coaching teams, improving delivery practices, and shaping technology strategy.
