About François

Need an experienced developer to structure, optimize, or evolve your complex business application?

With over 7 years of backend experience, I specialize in the Ruby on Rails ecosystem. Accustomed to demanding environments (FinTech), I recently led the technical architecture at WeSave (Amundi Group) for wealth management solutions used by millions of users.

My goal: build high-performing, scalable, and secure web applications while mastering technical debt.

💻 Core Expertise (Backend):
  • Scalable Architecture: Robust systems adapted to high loads and business evolution.
  • Performance & Security: Optimization of critical requests and protection of sensitive data.
  • Software Quality: Refactoring of legacy components, technical mentoring, and best practices.
  • API & Integration: Creation of solid foundations for communication with modern interfaces (Vue.js, etc.).

🤖 Bonus: AI & Data Integration:
High-performing AI requires an impeccable backend and reliable data. In addition to my Rails expertise, I assist my clients in integrating intelligent features:
  • Data Extraction: Advanced Web Scraping (CrawlAI, browser-use) to feed your processes.
  • LLM & API Integration: Secure connection of language models to your business logic.
  • Autonomous Agents: Automation of complex workflows via LangGraph.

🛠️ Technical Stack:
  • Backend: Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, Redis, Sidekiq, ElasticSearch.
  • Frontend: Vue.js
  • Ops / Tools: Docker, Heroku, NewRelic, Raygun.
