About Olivier

Freelance software architect & developer since 2015, I specialize in Python (FastAPI, Django, Wagtail) with over 20 years of IT experience, including 10 as a freelancer.

Currently, I am working full-time for a large group, but I remain available for one-off missions or technical support, particularly for VSEs/SMEs, cooperatives, or impact projects.

I am autonomous, rigorous, a good listener, and I deliver quickly.

My preferred stacks:
  • Python (FastAPI, Django, Wagtail)
  • PostgreSQL, Docker, Git
  • Lightweight frontend (HTMX, Alpine.js, Tailwind)
  • Local or cloud deployment
If you are looking for an experienced developer, capable of adapting, understanding quickly, and making things simple without sacrificing quality.
