• Development of high-performance web applications in Rust and Next.js to automate technological audits and extract trading opportunities in real-time from complex financial data.

• Optimization of backend APIs in Rust to ensure the speed and reliability of market indicator processing, in collaboration with data science teams.

• Participation in the design and improvement of advanced widgets, integrating sophisticated algorithms for flow tracking, market event analysis, relative value detection, and price pattern identification.

• Technological watch and contribution to the continuous improvement of the platform, in a demanding environment where performance and data security are essential.

I worked as a full-stack engineer on the development and transformation of a CRM for the cultural sector. This project allowed me to explore various challenges, from integrating external APIs to setting up a scalable SaaS infrastructure, while also participating in company life and professional events.

• Development and maintenance of a CRM dedicated to the cultural sector, with the addition of custom extensions to meet specific client needs.

• Integration of numerous external APIs, particularly mailing (Mailchimp, Mailjet) and ticketing (Weezevent) solutions, to automate and enhance CRM functionalities.

• Design and deployment of the SaaS version of the CRM on Kubernetes, with deployment management via Helm and Helmfile.

• Creation of a centralized API within the Kubernetes SaaS infrastructure, facilitating communication between different services and partners.

• Participation in trade shows and professional events to represent the company, interact with partners, and gather user needs.

Through my freelance missions, I've had the opportunity to collaborate with a wide range of clients, from tech startups to SMEs undergoing digital transformation. This experience allowed me to be involved in all stages of web product creation and evolution: from defining needs to production, including technical consulting, refactoring existing architectures, and providing support on scalability and cloud migration challenges. I am committed to delivering robust, well-documented solutions that are truly adapted to my clients' business needs.

• Full-stack development of applications and APIs with Next.js and NestJS, using MongoDB and PostgreSQL as per business requirements.

• Taking over and refactoring existing websites, including rewriting Express.js APIs to NestJS to improve maintainability and performance.

• Setting up and managing DevOps infrastructures: Helmfile, Helm, Kubernetes, Docker, Traefik, and Go to ensure application scalability, security, and availability.

• Deployment of monitoring and observability solutions with Grafana, Prometheus, and Loki to ensure performance tracking and system reliability in production.

• Technical support for clients on migration to SaaS solutions, transition to public cloud, and infrastructure optimization to handle increased load.

• Writing precise technical documentation to facilitate project onboarding, maintenance, and handover.

• Consulting on software architecture, scalability, and tool modernization, with a results-oriented and reliability-focused approach.
