What about the next one?
VP of Engineering
From Sep 2025
Paris, France

Virtuo
VP of Engineering
From Oct 2015 to Jun 2025 - 10 years
Paris, France
First employee at Virtuo, french mobility scale-up (part of FT120). We were building the alternative of car ownership by removing all the frictions a customer could face in a traditional car rental company. In 2023, the company operate in 6 different European countries.
When we’ve started the company, I was mainly focus on shipping high value features. Then, my daily tasks evolved and my missions were:
- Working closely with the product team to define the product roadmap and ensure the proper implementation of features.
- Managing up to 7 people, mostly tech leads (approximatively 20 full-stack developers in 2023 in tech department).
- Improving the developer experience with SREs (continuous deployment, code quality tooling, performance, reliability and observability).
- Designing code architecture with back-end developers (ensure the proper implementation regarding biggest features).
- Recruiting new comers next to the CTO and tech leads.
Here’s a list of few things I’m the most proud of having build during the almost 1à years:
- An environment of more than 50 micro-services. First we were hosted at Heroku and since 2020 at GCP (Kubernetes):
- Most of micro-services are backed by a MongoDB database.
- Home made service discovery mechanism (based on Websockets).
- Long tasks delegated to a queue mechanism (using RabbitMQ).
- Sessions and cache on Redis.
- Progressive Typescript migration.
- Full autonomous CI/CD (CircleCI and ArgoCD) with a thousands of unit, integration and e2e tests that release (many times per days) without any human interactions. Production releases are scheduled every 10 min or can be manually triggered by a Slack bot.
- Ephemeral platform instances, at start on AWS EC2 (with docker-compose and terraform) and then on GCP (Kubernetes). Those instances are build on demand by the developers for the QA team in order to test the features before going to production.

Neowebcar
Principal developer
From Jul 2011 to Jul 2015 - 4 years
Paris, France (in remote from Tours, France)
Neowebcar is a digital showcase for automotive retailers with the goal to help them to put their stock of new vehicles for sale online. In collaboration with the funders, sales team and the customer support we built the features to rock on. My main missions were:
- Marketing side: with 700K+ unique visitors every month, the SEO and SEM were the main source of traffic. Editorial optimisation + web pages performance (mainly DOMContentLoaded and TTFB), a big focus on Google Page Speed and lead conversions.
- Engineering: development of our own technology to import big CSV files with retailers vehicles (all in different formats), transform it and match each lines with a vehicles catalog from L’Argus.
- Maintenance of the platform (3 to 5 VMs with databases replication and backup) hosted at OVH.
The technology stack was nginx, PHP (php-fpm), MySQL, linux (Centos or RedHat), a bit of NodeJS for image resizing and some Redis database for cache, sessions and queues.
We were 3 engineers at maximum (with one intern).

Kernix
Fullstack developer
From Sep 2006 to Jul 2011 - 5 years
Paris, France
KerniX is a web agency and my main mission was the development of many websites:
- Taking the needs from the customers
- Development from scratch (in partnership with UI designers)
- Delivery and maintenance
Our customers had very various needs, here’s few examples:
- Familytrip: hotel nights booking website dedicated to families.
- Neowebcar: marketplace for automotive retailers to put online their stock of new vehicles (sold to L’Argus/leboncoin).
- Resaplace: booking service for car parking spaces for Effia.
The main technology was a self hosted LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP) platform on bare metal RedHat servers.
I used to have one intern to manage.

New Position
What I'm interested in
Engineering leadership, software architecture & culture.
What I'm good at
During my career I've developed many skills. Here are some of them:
- Making people work together.
- Building scalable and maintainable software systems from scratch.
- Understanding stakeholder requirements and translating them into technical solutions.
What matters to me
Here are the key points that are important to me:
- Great product to build with ambitious business goals.

- Company with strong values of boldness, transparency, and humility.
- International context.
- Impactful mission: green or humanitarian.
- Good tech stuff.
What I'm NOT interested in
- The title, I’m a very low-ego person and, for example, I know the job of CTO, VP Eng, Head of Eng would be very different from a company to another. I'm more attracted by day-to-day missions.
- Contracting, I'm looking for a full-time contract.
- A position where I would be doing only management, I’m a software engineer.
- Moving from where I'm leaving. I'm stuck in the 17th arrondissement of Paris for years to come. I can do full remote, I've already done it for eight years in the past.
