About Me

Computer engineer specialised in backend development and site reliability seeking a remote role starting in January 2025. With an engineering degree from IMT Atlantique and over four years of experience in building and maintaining distributed systems using Elixir/Erlang, I excel in developing scalable, maintainable software, implementing DevOps practices, and ensuring the reliability of Linux cloud infrastructures.
Passionate about computer networks, real-time rendering and open-source software, I have contributed to open-source console emulators and, lately, I have focused on game development with Godot, participating in game jams and publishing several games on my itch.io page.
