Gourouvin

Software Architect ·

I'm a fullstack developer with lead developer experience on production web projects. I love understanding the need, structuring technical choices and building applications that are simple to maintain. My military background also taught me to maintain a clear, reliable and collective approach, especially when topics become complex.
