About Sébastien

15 years of experiencein web development on **Ruby on Rails**.

I supportgrowing startups**, **SMEs**, and **scale-upsthat need a senior developer to take over andevolve an existing application(refactoring, performance, new features) or **design a robust business application**, from API to interface.

🛠Technical Stack

**Backend**: Ruby on Rails, Ruby, REST API, PostgreSQL, Redis, Sidekiq



**Frontend**: Hotwire (Turbo, Stimulus) — reactive interfaces without the complexity of an SPA



**Quality**: Automated tests (RSpec), CI/CD, code review, documentation


🎯What sets me apart

I'm not a dev who codes fast and moves on to the next project. My goal: asolid technical foundationon which you can build for years to come. Understanding the business before writing code, progressive and measurable deliveries, tested and maintainable code.
