About Aurélien

Product Owner terrain et technique avec un ADN de builder.

Des systèmes embarqués au Web3 et à l'IA, j'ai géré des backlogs, rédigé des specs et livré des features sur l'ensemble de la stack technique. En tant que cofondateur d'une startup Web3, j'ai créé et piloté 5 produits, du story mapping à la livraison sprint, en faisant croître la plateforme de zéro à 8 000+ utilisateurs actifs. Je suis le plus performant quand je peux plonger dans les détails techniques, challenger l'équipe avec les bonnes questions et délivrer de la valeur à chaque sprint.
