Hi, I'm Romain. I'm a senior software engineer, experienced in working across the whole stack, and in shipping web applications as well as enterprise softwares.

After graduating from EPITA in Paris, I built, maintained and supported a hugely complex risk analysis software at Calypso Technology, San Francisco. We had clients like Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanly or Natixis.

However, I was extremly interested by the rise of web applications and decided to teach myself web technologies, which sent me on a path of consulting, freelancing, and product creation, which I wasn't aware of yet.

After coming back to New Caledonia, and a short stint in Sydney working as a Software Engineer for clients like Qantas via OCTO Technology, I wanted to find a way to contribute to the digital life of my country.

Amongst other things, I released a local search engine indexing 1M pages and hosting 30k visitors and 150k searchs a month, advised and invested in a ride hailing app, teached children robotics, released an appointment booking service, and was an associate at a local development firm specialized in start-ups, with a blockchain powered crowd-testing web app as a first released product.

After a 2 years long career break, where I took the opportunity to launch a side business with my fiancée, I am now happily employed as a Senior Software Engineer with AgileSoft.NC, currently working as a contractor for the New Caledonian government.

Here is my resume.
