Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDaniel Francois is a Staff Engineer with over a decade of hands-on experience building and modernizing web applications across PHP, JavaScript and Java stacks. Trained in information systems and databases (Université de Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines), he evolved from backend-focused roles into a full-stack advocate and CI/automation proponent, driving test-first practices and delivery pipelines at DataDome and prior clients like Orange and Veolia. He blends deep backend competence (Zend, Symfony/Api Platform, Doctrine) with practical front-end craftsmanship—having turned initial reluctance into a genuine JavaScript enthusiasm through tooling like Webpack, Babel and Browserify. Comfortable operating in high-debt, mission-critical domains, he routinely refactors legacy code, introduces automated testing and industrializes deployments using Jenkins and Vagrant. Based near Lyon, he pairs technical leadership with frequent hands-on development, shaping both architecture and developer workflows to accelerate teams.
