  • Oct 2015 - Nov 2017

  I helped open the R&D office in Paris. What an adventure!. On Docker Machine, my open-source work decreased the installation failure rate from 60% to 10% on Windows. I then led the development of Docker for Windows and helped on Docker for Mac. I started a quality program that dramatically improved the stability of both the product and the CI. We now have 650k (happy?) users. The whole story is here: http://blog.javabien.net/2017/05/09/18-months-at-docker-paris/ The tools we used: Golang, C# and Docker everywhere. Show less

• Freelance Geek - Owner

  • May 2011 - Oct 2015

  After 3 years at Algodeal, I decided to go freelance. A freelance geek! I built my first iPad application, a web-based CRM blessed by its users and a financial analysis site envied by its competitors. Some Objective-C and Swift, lot's of web development (AngularJs) and Devops (Google Cloud Platform, Docker) as usual. 20% of my time was spent advocating the products I love. I blogged, led and participated to open-source projects, talked at and attended to conferences and User Groups. As a Cloud Google Expert, I helped developers solve the pain points they were struggling with. With a friend, we created the CodeStory coding challenge (http://www.code-story.net) to which 100+ developers participated 3 years in a row. That was a lot of fun! For the first edition of Devoxx France (1200+ attendees), with 3 friends, we developed an application in two days, in front of an audience. Show less



Sonar

  • Apr 2012 - Nov 2012

  I joined SonarSource as a developer on the Sonar product. I met a great team. The kind of person that everyone wants to work with. Ultra competent, fun, hard at work, eager to learn and teach. I had the chance to work on the core of Sonar, participate to open-source and commercial plugins, help improve the test infrastructure. I have shared my personal vision of development and testing. Language-wise, it was Ruby, Java, CoffeeScript and JavaScript. Sonar is taking a good direction. The goal is to drastically shorten the feedback loop, all in our favourite IDEs. The only reason I left was the taste of huge freedom I got being free-lance. Show less



Algodeal

• CTO - Developer

  • Sep 2008 - May 2011

  At Algodeal, we've created the first "Crowd Sourced' Hedge Fund. We tried to provide any Quant on the planet with the best tools to backtest quantitative strategies. I hired and led a team of six into setting up a web site backed by a farm of servers running simulations on Tbs of market data. Did I mention we actually had fun doing that? How did we do that? We deployed every two weeks a Java-based application on 50 servers. We focused on user friendliness of our web site and APIs. We invested a lot into fast automated testing. We kept our process light and easy. We pair programmed as much as possible and cross reviewed code. The tools we used: Java 1.6, Terracotta, Hadoop, Jetty, Netty, Linux, Mysql, Git, Spring MVC, Guice, Javascript, JUnit, Infinitest, Scala, Guava, Mockito... Show less



Valtech

• CTO & Business Development Director

  • Feb 2005 - Sep 2008

  I wore two caps at Valtech: technical leader of 70 consultants and consultant myself. Visiting lots of customers for only few months was refreshing. It helps focus on what’s important: What do users want? How to ship best quality fast? As a Consultant, I was technical leader on customers projects, coaching XP and Scrum. As a Technical Director, I helped increase Valtech's activity and visibility on Agile. What skills did I developed? Helping a lot of people focus on a common target. Helping developers sometimes more experienced than me. Making the bridge between CEOs, R&D teams and end-users. Show less



Adesoft

• CTO - Developer

  • 1998 - 2005

  I joined ADESOFT in 1998 (when it was called MAFJET) as a Java developer on the ADE Enterprise product. After I hired and managed the Java development team, I took responsibility of both the development team and the consulting team as a CTO. With a team of up to ten, we developed a distributed solution to schedule complex resource management problems. Schools, universities, army training centers would use the software to schedule training courses and optimize the usage of resources. What I’ve learned: On the technical side: the users need tools simple to use yet powerful and adaptive. Also discovered that WANs are not friendly until you get to know each other. On the management side: building and leading a team while still being part of that team. The tools we used: C++/MFC/Corba, Java/Swing/RMI, JUnit, Javascript, JSP, Home-made ORM, transaction framework, constraint programming and simulated annealing engines. Show less
