Vincent Messerli, PhD, PMP
Xavier a travaillé plusieurs années avec moi en tant que fournisseur de projets IT. Il a d'abord été responsable technique de la mise en place de nos Extranets B2B pour nos entreprises affiliées au 2e pilier, puis a été chef de projet pour la migration de notre application d'offres 3e pilier en technologie GWT, l'ajout des offres PLP et la refonte de système d'offres 2e pilier. Xavier est un excellent chef de projet complété par de très grandes connaissances techniques. Il est très rigoureux et de toute confiance. Il a été très apprécié dans son travail à Retraites Populaires. Je recommande donc vivement Xavier à un futur employeur.
