About Toufik

Senior backend developer, I work on data and backend platforms used in Smart Cities and Smart Buildings, with a strong emphasis on reliability, performance, and readability.

I design systems capable of processing large-scale field data, transforming it into actionable indicators, and then exposing it via robust APIs. I have an end-to-end understanding of technical chains: collection, normalization, time-series storage, business calculations, restitution, and production deployment.

My main expertise focuses on:

Go for developing high-performance backend services,
PostgreSQL / TimescaleDB for processing and aggregating time-series data,
MongoDB for managing assets and metadata,
Microservices, event-driven, DDD / hexagonal architectures,
Docker / Kubernetes environments.

Accustomed to the constraints of real-world environments (volume, incomplete data, time zones, service continuity), I favor simple, robust, and maintainable solutions, designed to evolve without unnecessarily complicating existing systems.

Independent and rigorous, I can contribute as a team reinforcement or take full responsibility for a technical scope, with a particular focus on quality, knowledge transfer, and clarity of communication.

    TECH
    February 2016 - August 2021 (5 years and 7 months)
    CTO and co-founder of a startup that designed a complete fuel monitoring solution, from sensor design to data exploitation in production.

    I managed the entire technical chain: product definition, backend architecture, field data processing, measurement reliability, APIs, and large-scale deployment.
    My role was to ensure consistency between the field reality, actionable data, and business needs (monitoring, alerts, loss reduction).

    This experience gave me a very concrete vision of complex systems, where robustness, readability, and decision-making are more important than over-engineering.
