About Foad

Holder of a Master 2 in embedded systems from the University of Paris VI-Sorbonne (UPMC), I have cultivated a rich IT background, specializing inwebdevelopment (frontend and backend) and **DevOps**, where I actively contribute to the development of new features and operational maintenance.

My focus on technical quality is reflected in:
🖍️ daily code reviews
🚚 regular monitoring of deliveries
✅ efficient incident resolution.

As a Tech Lead, I am also involved in:
⚙️ task breakdown
📈 velocity monitoring
👬 team staffing and recruitment

I support the developers in the team in their skill development, fostering collective learning. Always staying updated on the latest technological innovations, I ensure I master the tools and languages dedicated to the projects I work on.

I had the opportunity to welcome Foad into an Agile SAFE train where he served as Tech Lead in a feature team and then as a transverse Tech Lead for 2 years. He possesses excellent technical skills and the ability to quickly ramp up on new technologies. He is very involved in his tasks and persistent when facing obstacles. In his role as Tech Lead in a feature team, he demonstrated pedagogical skills and challenged his developers to foster their growth. In his role as transverse Tech Lead, he was a true all-rounder, handling all aspects of architecture, production, and delivery. I highly recommend Foad, who had to leave the assignment because the legal 2-year limit was reached, but we would have gladly kept him with us! Furthermore, he is very pleasant to work with, possessing great human qualities.
