Yoan Alvarez is a seasoned Scala backend developer with 11 years of experience building resilient microservices and cloud-native platforms across HR, RPA, and ERP domains. Currently at Stuart, he specializes in functional Scala and the Typelevel stack (cats-effect, http4s, fs2, doobie) and has a strong track record of shipping production systems using Docker, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL and CI/CD tooling. Previously he led backend teams and played hands-on devops roles at PeopleDoc and Sage, bridging architecture, operations and delivery. Based in Greater Paris, he combines deep functional-programming expertise with practical experience in distributed systems and automation, making him comfortable both mentoring teams and diving into complex codebases. An engineer who moved gradually from Java/JEE into Scala-led architectures, he often brings JVM-era pragmatism to modern functional designs.
