About Simon

Senior Web Developer and Architect, with over 20 years of experience in designing, developing, and deploying high-stakes web and SaaS applications.

I distinguish myself with a pragmatic and results-oriented approach: rephrasing problems, getting to the core, and delivering robust solutions that stand the test of time. I master the entire technical chain, from front-end to production: application architecture, CI/CD, Docker, reverse proxy (Nginx), cloud deployments, and monitoring.

I have supported and built SaaS products from end to end, from initial technical choices to production operation, with a strong focus on reliability, automation, and maintainability.

Comfortable with both modern stacks (Next.js, JavaScript ecosystem, cloud) and existing .NET environments, I frequently intervene in modernization, production stabilization, or refactoring of aging architectures.

Accustomed to working autonomously, I can:

=> launch a project from scratch,
=> secure and stabilize a production deployment,
=> improve a GitLab CI/CD pipeline,
=> or act as a technical referent to guide a team or product towards best practices.

Types of missions

=> Creation or takeover of SaaS
=> Web & Cloud Architecture
=> Next.js / JavaScript (modern projects, SSR, API)
=> .NET: audit, modernization, progressive migration
=> CI/CD, Docker, Nginx, automated deployments
=> Production stabilization, incident diagnostics

What clients appreciate

=> Global vision (dev + infra + prod)
=> Ability to quickly unblock complex situations
=> Simple, justified, and maintainable solutions
=> Clear communication, without unnecessary jargon
