About me

A computer engineer who graduated from Polytech Nantes in 2018, I am currently Lead Developer at Make IT Safe, a GRC (Governance, Risk and Compliance) SaaS solution.

I have solid expertise in web design and development, having worked mainly with the Symfony framework from version 4 to 8 (PHP 5 to 8.5) and Vue.js versions 2 and 3 (JavaScript/TypeScript). I am convinced that understanding the business domain and the design phase are at the core of a developer's work: quality code stems above all from a proper analysis of the need.

Today I embrace an AI-driven approach in my daily work, relying on AI agents (Claude Code) to speed up development while maintaining a high standard of code quality.

I also bring strong interpersonal skills through my ability to work as a team, my sense of pedagogy and my taste for a job well done.

What I love about my job is learning new things, working as a team to solve complex problems, and delivering code that is readable, maintainable and robust to meet the needs of end users.
