// BACKEND ENGINEER //

Infrastructure engineer. I work on data pipelines, stream processing, and the messy reality of production systems. I write about what actually breaks — and why. I also ship side projects.

CHARACTER

Backend engineer at ScorePlay in Paris, working on the infrastructure that ingests, indexes, and serves sports media at scale. Kafka pipelines, CDC with Debezium, OpenSearch vector search, and a lot of Go.

Most of what I write here comes from real production failures: the 27MB row that silently killed our Debezium pipeline, the partition scaling trap, the OpenSearch fp16 trade-off that nobody documents properly.

Outside work I build things that scratch itches — a public procurement monitor for French SMBs, a DJ tracklist discovery tool, an AI-powered Star Wars RPG. I'm interested in the overlap between solid infrastructure and products that actually ship.
