About Alex

Seeking opportunities to work on your custom technical needs while being able to integrate less technical but equally essential aspects for the project (planning/project criticality, sensitive interfaces, fine communication needs, client relations).

Also interested in social impact missions for associations/NGOs/non-profit organizations with projects: #ReadyToHelp

My main strengths in action:

  • Curiosity and listening: to quickly understand the environment, the issues, and develop the necessary skills to resolve them.
  • Clarity and realism: naturally rigorous and organized, I nevertheless have flexibility and responsiveness to adapt best and converge towards objectives.
  • Versatility: capable of working completely autonomously managing quality/cost/time aspects or integrated into a team, being as proactive as capable of self-reflection during discussions.

I offer to share my knowledge and past experiences in embedded and desktop software development, product development and validation, or software solution troubleshooting/improvement.

Having spent over 8 years in the railway environment and with a background in embedded systems and transport, I naturally integrate well into these fields while remaining very open to discovering new ones.

Regularly undergoing training to broaden my skills.
