Back to original languageAbout Brice
Certified Symfony 3 Expert (since 04/16/2018). Available full-time starting May 7, 2018.
I am a full-stack Symfony 3 developer, but primarily backend. I am accustomed to working within startups (MVP creation, REST API) in an Agile SCRUM context.
I love automating tests and raising awareness within a team to write more tests. I practice TDD (Test Driven Development) and BDD (Behaviour Driven Development). These practices allow me to ask the right questions at the right time and thus avoid potential problems for the end-user.
I mainly use Behat for functional tests with the Selenium driver and the Page Object Pattern to significantly reduce test maintenance time and thus avoid rewriting all tests when the application design changes.
I have had the opportunity to work in startups in various fields:
- Home Automation, Energy (BetterWatt)
- Social Network (Horyou)
- E-commerce (Quable)
I am passionate about personal development; my training in NVC (Nonviolent Communication) allows me to apply the fundamental principles of agility and truly listen to my clients' real needs.
My areas of expertise are:
- Symfony 1.4/2/3/4
- Backbone.js, ExtJS, Javascript, JQuery
- Test Driven Development
- Behaviour Driven Development with Behat / Cucumber
- ElasticSearch, RabbitMQ, Docker, Jenkins, Gitlab-ci
Do not hesitate to contact me to discuss new projects.
