When I first joined The Residency, the real-time chat application was limited to 2000 simultaneous users, which degraded performance and negatively impacted user experience.

My mission as a Software Engineer was to optimize the application to increase the number of simultaneous users, while maintaining a smooth and pleasant interface on both Android and iOS.

I developed key features, including profile management, authentication, and real-time messaging with quick reactions, precisely integrating mockups for a consistent user experience. In parallel, I applied rigorous development principles and unit tests to ensure component robustness and quality. I used modern technologies like React, React Native, Typescript, AWS, and GitLab, and collaborated closely with the team to ensure technical and functional alignment of the project.

Thanks to these efforts, the application now supports up to 80,000 simultaneous users, with a much smoother user experience. This improvement not only met the company's needs but also increased user adoption and satisfaction.

At Rize Networks, I contributed to the development of the POHPIH application, the first mobile app for online freestyle dance battles. This unique application allows dancers of all levels to compete, track their progress on a global leaderboard, and access exclusive tutorials and dance community news.

My mission was to develop an intuitive and responsive user interface that facilitates battle interactions, leaderboard viewing, and access to various training and news content. The goal was to create an engaging and fluid experience for users while ensuring optimal performance on both iOS and Android platforms.

I worked on optimizing the interface using React Native to ensure an immersive user experience, even during online battle interactions. I also implemented animations and intuitive navigation so users could easily access key features like leaderboards, tutorials, and community information, ensuring visual consistency and smooth transitions.

The application has brought together an international community of dancers who have been able to compete, improve their rankings, and access valuable resources for progress. Positive feedback highlighted the app's ease of use and immersive experience, further strengthening POHPIH's reputation.

At the Emagineurs agency in Lyon, I was responsible for the creation, maintenance, and evolution of websites for various clients, including private companies, municipalities, and public entities.

My role involved developing functional and engaging websites, ensuring their daily smooth operation, and implementing technical and visual improvements to meet evolving client needs.

I managed content updates, resolved technical issues, and added new features based on user feedback. By working closely with internal teams and maintaining good communication with clients, I ensured that the websites met expectations for performance, accessibility, and design.

Thanks to this proactive approach, the websites benefited from increased reliability and better adaptability to changing client needs. This enhanced end-user satisfaction and allowed the agency to maintain positive, long-term relationships with its clients.
