Experience

  • VIALINK
    Full-Stack engineer
    SOFTWARE PUBLISHING
    March 2023 - Today (3 years and 3 months)
    Courbevoie, France
    Vialink is a French LegalTech company specializing in the dematerialization and automation of KYC processes. It had over 80 employees and supported major players in the banking and insurance sectors, with over 20 million cases processed annually.

    Vialink was acquired by Signaturit in 2024, a European specialist in electronic signatures and certified document management.

    I joined the "Identity" team as a Fullstack Java / Angular engineer. I was initially responsible for maintaining and improving identity verification flows, as well as the overall authentication API. My scope then expanded to other KYC-related features.

    The team consisted of:
    - 3 Full-stack Java/Angular Developers, including 1 Team Lead
    - 1 Frontend Developer
    - 1 Product Owner

    Key achievements:
    - Design of a configurable password expiration policy, which strengthened the overall security of user accounts.
    - Design of an API to automatically classify documents submitted by users (e.g., payslip, tax notice). This automation reduced manual interventions and accelerated case processing.
    - Management of a progressive migration to a new identity verification API, while maintaining full backward compatibility. This change improved service reliability while integrating new compliance standards.
    - Design of a solvency assessment API based on a customizable business rules language. This new component automated the calculation of solvency when submitting payslips or provided bank details.

I then joined the BigFish team (2 backend developers, 2 frontend developers, 1 PO, 2 tech leads - back and front), in charge of an API for activating online marketing segments.

    Key achievements:
    - Design a high-performance CLI application to count unique users in hundreds of massive files (several GB) stored on AWS S3.

    - Develop a strategic feature for the BigFish API: the creation of Contextual Segments (keyword themes: sports, finance, travel, etc.). Implement automated activation workflows and export targeted URLs to AWS S3, opening up new possibilities in contextual marketing.
