About
Senior software engineer — seven years of experience — specialised in event-driven and microservice architectures on AWS, for high-volume, business-critical systems. Based in Toulouse, France.
Currently tech lead on Airbus Skywise, a platform processing several million aircraft events per day, where I led an architecture overhaul that cut AWS costs by more than 35%. I work across the whole cycle: architecture decisions, Java backend development, team leadership, performance, resilience and cost control.
