Professional experiences:
Over nearly two decades, I've conceived and supervised hundreds of bespoke projects ranging from SaaS to IoT, ERP and mobile applications for numerous startups and large corporations. My tenure as the COO & CTO of a development agency honed my skills in strategic planning, coordination, and team management (up to 20 people). My role evolved to encompass not just technical leadership and project management, but also sales acumen, product owner, and UX insights. I enjoy coaching and mentoring team members to achieve their professional goals.
Entrepreneurial ventures:
Alongside my professional journey, I launched several web and mobile app projects on my own. One of these ventures has been a source of passive income since 2016, generating $15K in annual recurring revenue and attracting 300-500k monthly visits.
Now, I’m fully dedicated to launching InsightKeeper and expanding its reach.
Background:
I embarked on my journey as a self-taught coder, writing my first lines of code at the age of eight on an Amiga 500. My passion continued into my teenage years, during which I delved into developing mIRC bots and learning C/C++. I pursued formal education at ENSEIRB (Graduate School of Bordeaux Institute of Technology), where I specialized in software engineering. My academic studies gave me the opportunity to focus myself on learning how to manage teams, master standard industrial practices and communicate effectively while respecting professional codes. This unique blend of self-taught expertise and formal education has been a key strength in my career.
Personal interests:
My top priority is my family, and I’m proud to be a father.
Apart from work, I enjoy aggressive inline skating for the adrenaline rush and photography for aesthetics and capturing memories.
As a finance enthusiast with over 15 years of investing experience, I find it both challenging and rewarding to navigate the markets.
Thirsty for knowledge, I never stop learning.
