Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I started development over 15 years ago in a startup creating robots for agriculture. I participated in the development of the robot navigation software and then took over project and product management.

I have a strong appetite for the C++ language (I continuously train myself on the latest advances) as well as for system architectures in this language.
