Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I intervene when tech needs to become a business lever, not a cost center.

CTO as a Service with +15 years of experience (CTO, Digital Manager, Architect, Lead Dev), I have led and restructured several technical departments, from startups to scale-ups, as well as SMEs.

**What I have concretely done**:

- Complete takeover of a digital department: recruitment, structuring, definition of OKRs/KPIs, industrialization of processes and CI/CD.

- Refactoring of critical architectures: API migration, new cloud infrastructure, improvement of scalability and resilience.

- Building products from scratch: real-time messaging, video stream management, chatbot, scraping, complex business platforms.

- Recruitment and management of tech teams (on-site & remote): developers, QA, product coordination.

- Industrialization & DevOps: monitoring, alerting, automation, implementation of quality standards (reviews, tests, CI/CD).

- Complex partner integrations (ATS, third-party APIs, multi-actor business workflows).

**My specialty**: Structuring, clarifying, simplifying.

**I combine**:

- Strategic vision (IT ↔ business alignment)

- Robust architecture (DDD, event-driven, API-first)

- Operational execution (I know how to dive into the code)

- Pragmatic leadership

**Tech & Expertise**:

- TypeScript / NodeJS / NestJS / React

- Cloud (GCP, AWS)

- DevOps / Docker / CI/CD

- Distributed architecture / API / Event-driven

- Agile / Lean / Team structuring

**The problems I solve, what I bring**:

- CTO expertise without hiring a permanent employee

- Technical takeover and restructuring

- Architecture refactoring

- Getting a team lacking structure back on track

- A product that needs to scale

- Managing technical debt that blocks the roadmap

I transform a fuzzy technical organization into a structured, predictable, and high-performing machine.
