Senior🎓
Top SchoolGeoffroy Lesage is an engineering leader with 13 years’ experience building and scaling product-focused teams, currently driving Search engineering at Luxury Escapes from Sydney. He combines hands-on backend chops—evidenced by contributions to the LoopBack MySQL connector—with product-minded architecture and measurable impact, cutting average and p90 search latency from 5s to 1s. Previously a CTO and co-founder, he has re-architected platforms for cost and scale, led cross-functional roadmaps, and introduced company-wide analytics, A/B testing and end-to-end testing practices. Comfortable across cloud-native stacks (AWS, ECS, BigQuery, OpenSearch) and consumer-facing frontends, he mentors engineers while owning tech strategy and delivery. Outside work he’s an avid kite surfer, climber and alpinist, bringing the same appetite for calculated risk and persistence to shipping resilient systems.
