About Cyril

Lead React and React Native Developer with over 10 years of experience on critical projects for international groups: banking platforms (Optum Bank), digital health (UnitedHealth Group), luxury e-commerce (Richemont, Hermès), as well as for ambitious startups and driven freelancers.

I don't just code. I come into complex projects to structure the front-end architecture, define quality standards, industrialize CI/CD, and onboard technical teams for the long term. From component to deployment.

What sets me apart: a cross-functional vision from front → back → cloud → UX/UI, an ability to make quick technical decisions under pressure, results-oriented leadership, and AI-enhanced productivity across the entire development cycle.

What I bring to a project:
💡 Precise understanding of your needs and specifications
⚙️ Implementation of robust web and mobile architectures
📱 Design and development of mobile applications with React Native
🖥 Creation of interactive and high-performance websites with React.js / Next.js
🔗 Industrialization of your CI/CD and improvement of your delivery process
🚀 Integration of AI into team workflows

Do you have a demanding project? Let's talk.

Together, let's bring your ideas to life and build a successful digital future! 🚀
