Young man from Paris area. I enjoy science, technology, cooking, politics and deep social connections. I installed my first Linux at 12 after searching for "Free Windows" on internet; Flashed a custom firmware on all my smartphones and game consoles. FLOSS enthusiast, I use Arch Linux (btw) as my daily driver since 2013. I would like to dedicate my work life contributing to build and improve our technology, our common goods, wealth or democracies. You know, something useful or important!

Embedded Software Developer
Munic (Formerly Mobile Devices Ingénierie)
I worked on the applicative level of the embedded devices sold by the company. My work on the devices went from userland drivers, to data processing, with the goal of handling OBD-II communications for light/heavy automotive vehicles. I also worked on the last version of the device's emulator, with a goal of easier development, and better software testing. Moreover, I also had been responsible of leading an internal project, during six months, with a team of around 10 interns. During this time I established a one month formation so that the trainess could acquire all the needed technical and organizational skills needed. This formation has then been used widely accross the compnay for newcomers. The project was made up of one mobile application, one website and some cloud services.

“ Nicolas a toujours fait preuve d’une grande rigueur dans son travail, et ce à toutes les étapes du développement des projets : conception, tests unitaires, développement, intégration et déploiement. Garant de la clarté et de la facilité d’accès des livrables dont il était responsable, il a participé activement à l’amélioration de la base documentaire technique des projets (...) [et] en améliorant les outils. Son temps dans notre entreprise a également permis à Nicolas de solidifier et d'affirmer les bonnes capacités techniques qu'il possédait déjà à son arrivée, son goût pour la formation lui ayant permis de parfaire sa maîtrise des outils utilisés communément par l'équipe (Linux, git, Docker, CI, etc.). Enfin, Nicolas fut également apprécié pour ses qualités relationnelles, en particulier il fut toujours disponible pour prêter main forte, que ce soit à un collègue pour expliquer un point technique, ou pour se faire interlocuteur sur des problèmes de conception, ou encore pour aider à terminer un projet en temps et en heure. ”
Cyprien DEBU | Nicolas' manager | Vehicle Diagnostics Team, Technical Lead at Munic | March 6th 2021
“ I was in charge of evaluating Nicolas during his end of studies project. He was part of a team of 9 students and was the lead developper, position that he managed perfectly well. He is a skilled developper and is able to provide assistance to his team when necessary. I have been in charge of Nicolas and the rest of his team from early 2015 to early 2017, and it was a pleasure to work and interact with him the whole time. ”
