I'm an experienced software engineer, author and trainer working as an independent software consultant.

I have significant experience in engineering and operating distributed systems at all levels of the stack, ranging from high-level architecture down to debugging issues at the kernel and network level.

Next to working on client projects I also like to write and talk at conferences. I wrote the book Reactive Web Applications (Manning Publications) about building web applications following the reactive system principles.

I studied telecommunications at the National Institute of Applied Sciences in Lyon which have provided me with a deep understanding of the nature of networks, signals and information theory.

I’m fluent in English, French and German.
