Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I am a CTO / Lead Developer / Product Manager with over 20 years of experience, specializing in the design and creation of digital solutions with high business impact.

My role is not limited to producing code: I help companies transform a strategic intention into a concrete, reliable, and maintainable solution. I am involved both upstream (scoping, architecture, technological choices) and in execution (development, team structuring, delivery).

I co-founded Jackson & Kent, a company with which we have carried out over 1,200 projects for demanding clients (TotalEnergies, MK2, Dior, Alpine...). This experience has allowed me to develop a pragmatic, results-oriented approach, with a strong demand for quality (TDD, BDD, industrialization).

I am particularly comfortable with:

- creating custom platforms (Laravel, Node.js, APIs)

- complex and interconnected architectures (e.g., e-commerce platforms, data, multi-source synchronization)

- technical and product structuring (roadmap, prioritization, team organization)

- supporting business units (translating business challenges into concrete solutions)

- integrating AI into existing tools to create a competitive advantage

Recent example: design and development of a platform for selling online film distribution rights (MK2), with multi-source data synchronization and Shopify integration.

I work with a simple logic: understand quickly, decide clearly, execute cleanly.
