Work Experience
Lead Backend Developer - Bienprêter
As lead backend developer in the fintech sector, I am responsible for the architecture and development of APIs using Symfony and API Platform. I established the project's technical infrastructure by introducing design patterns such as DDD and CQRS, setting up automated test coverage, and defining the team's coding conventions. I also support junior developers on a daily basis through mentoring and code reviews.
