About Pascal

Since 2021, I've been helping startups with their technical choices, taking into account their business constraints and history. I help find the right balance between immediate effectiveness and future scalability.

Throughout my assignments, I have mentored over 10 junior developers to accelerate their skill development and improve the reliability of their deliverables.

Through my professional experiences and numerous side projects, I have a strong affinity for both backend and frontend, which allows me to have a global vision of the product, and total autonomy in designing the best solutions.

My current favorite stack:
  • ✍️ TypeScript everywhere, which provides unprecedented peace of mind compared to Javascript.
  • ⚛️ React with nice hooks, which elegantly encapsulates and decouples components, enhanced with some contexts and topped with Zustand.
  • 🐈 NestJS on the backend, for building very good decoupled and testable services.
  • 🔗 GraphQL for these last two to communicate quickly, flexibly, and efficiently.
  • 💾 MongoDB / SQL to store your precious data.
  • 🖥 AWS to run all of this.
