Soft Skills

Problem Solver

Every project I've built started as a problem no one else wanted to solve.

  • Turns friction into structured, shippable products
  • Thinks in systems, not isolated features — sees the architecture behind the need
  • From a PHP CMF to Roslyn meta-metamodels: each leap began with "this shouldn't be this hard"

Visionary

I see the product before writing a line of code.

  • Envisions end-to-end architecture from a single pain point
  • Long-term vision paired with iterative, short-loop execution
  • Designs for composability — today's module becomes tomorrow's platform

Patient & Tenacious

I stick with hard problems — shortcuts create harder ones later.

  • Willing to refactor three times to get the abstraction right
  • 20+ years of self-taught learning: curiosity outlasts any roadblock
  • Complexity doesn't scare me — rushing through it does

Pragmatic Communicator

I bridge the gap between what developers build and what stakeholders need.

  • Explains technical decisions in business terms, and vice versa
  • Strong team spirit — collaboration over silos
  • Written & spoken, French & English, sync & async, on-site & remote

Thoughtful

I think before I code — design pressure over quick fixes.

  • Measures twice, cuts once — aligns with "quality as craft" philosophy
  • Learns from every project through continuous retrospection
  • Agile practitioner: short feedback loops, constant course correction
