Back to original languageAbout Francois
Senior Developer & Tech Lead with 14 years of experience in designing large-scale web, mobile, and full-stack applications across various sectors (aerospace, defense, automotive, pharma, tech). I work with modern stacks (TypeScript, Python, etc.) and cloud architectures to build high-performing, maintainable, and scalable platforms.
A product builder and passionate about product development, I am particularly exploring AI to accelerate iteration and push the boundaries of what a small team can build.
Combining hands-on development with technical leadership, I support teams in designing, building, and scaling products, with a strong focus on product impact and long-term quality.
