About Thomas

I build software, and manage those who do. I believe in making high quality software, one step at a time. I also teach, write, give talks and presentations on best practices, tools, internal projects, side projects or anything that I find interesting. I build efficient teams for continuous success and high performance.

I put a lot of effort into code quality, through testing, CI, documentation and continuous refactoring. Motivated by change, I have a strong ability to adapt and learn quickly. I am a great team worker, in the workplace, in sports, and in games.

In my free time, I read (check my Goodreads profile at play sports (football/baseball/ski/weight lifting), read some more, practice mountain hiking, play board games, travel, and discover new places - when we're not locked down. I also attend meet-ups, compete in hackathons and experiment with side projects.

By working in France, the UK, Australia and (remotely) in Greece and the Netherlands, I became a good communicator both in English and French.
I lived in different Latin American countries for over a year, and I'm also fluent in Spanish.

Main skills: adaptability, communication, solving problems, leading team projects, empathy, code quality, Rust.

    Beat is a ride-hailing company operating (mostly) in LATAM. I'm making Payment and Accounting software reliable at scale, for Beat's drivers and passengers. I build a strong, resilient team by helping engineers to identify their areas of improvement and to work on them, by identifying the best engineers to hire and by aligning the team on common goals. I help my engineers grow, manage their career, understand their performance, get out of their comfort zone and do what's best for the company. I design, redesign, build, improve software with a focus on data consistency and reliability. I own the software I build from documentation, design and planning, to infrastructure, monitoring and observability. I coordinate with business stakeholders as well as other engineering teams from different domains to make sure the software I build is aligned with the company's best interest. I spend time improving our tooling and documentation to improve each and every engineer's capability to build good quality software, fast. I work hand in hand with other technical leaders in the company to define company technical standards and best practices. I reduced our monolith's CI pipeline run-time from ±20 to 3 minutes, saving ±5200 hours per year. I conduct interviews to get the most talented engineers on board. And also, I fix problems efficiently when things go wrong.
