David Dewalle

My 24 years of professional experience, including nearly 10 years in Technical Lead positions with the primary goal of uniting around a common project, allow me to appreciate software design, experimentation, architecture, and development, as well as support, positive productivity seeking, pedagogy, and knowledge sharing (co-founder and co-leader of the Paris Java User Group in 2008, member of the Devoxx France organizing team since its creation in 2012).

As an involved Tech Lead, I place application architecture and quality of execution at the center of my project considerations, both technical and strategic, with a particular appetite for innovation, resilience, scalability, security, observability, accessibility, test-driven development culture, craftsmanship, Hexagonal architecture, and efficient CI/CD.

Autonomous, versatile, curious, rigorous, pragmatic, unifying, and empathetic, I have a particular interest in challenging both technology and people, confronting ideas, learning from everyone's failures and mistakes, and capitalizing on collective and individual successes in a relaxed work environment where everyone's dynamism and involvement are coordinated within a truly agile framework.

I enjoy contributing, sometimes beyond my basic responsibilities, to improve the daily lives of development teams and facilitate value creation in a collective dynamic by supporting stepping back.

My experience as a consultant with companies of various sizes and functional environments (from finance to health, including energy and e-commerce) has allowed me to acquire a certain versatility and to implement my adaptability. I have had the opportunity to work with large companies and startups (early stage and scale-up).
