    I lead your development teams and architect new platforms

    As a .NET tech lead for a team of 15, I am responsible for ensuring implementations, certifying the quality of the code produced, and adhering to the architecture of a portfolio management software (equities, futures, etc.).
    I also act as a mentor to deliver robust and scalable solutions, while respecting best practices and group guidelines.

    In addition to my technological leadership, my finance expertise allows me to discuss directly with product teams and end-users of our application. I can convey and explain to development teams the business logic behind each new feature.

    Beyond my role as team tech lead, I designed the platform's architecture, introducing the latest versions of the .NET framework (v.8, 9, and 10) and implementing a microservices architecture and an Angular frontend.
