Tech Lead and Software Architect
MobileExchange

Mobile application and its own SaaS allowing phone resellers and repair shops to scan and manage their stock, to
instant get relevant information (ownership, specs…) about any phone they are being handled though factory
connectivity.
Though consolidating code bases and approaches I had developed over years into a SaaS platform, I allowed
clients to greatly reduce their TCO while boosting their TTM. In the case of MobileExchange this made the project
go live in less than 6 months at 1/3 of the otherwise estimated budget.

In-house Magento improved version for the original marketplace, including custom memory caches, recoding of
resources hungry functions, ultra fast speed boost, and overall code robustness.
As a result of a sound approach of analysis and innovation, the high-performance platform that I delivered was
able to guarantee a quality user experience even during high traffic, despite a limited budget not allowing
scalability via the cloud.

Lead Developer
Polarboot

Developed in Java a whole featured SMS server with authentic two-ways channel (MO/MT/WebSMS), along its
web platform (monitoring, SMS chat), premium numbers handling, high speed messaging (avg. 20K messages/
second).
Back to that time, there was no global offer for SMPP-HTTP connectivity. The solution I conceived for Polarboot
allowed it to aggregate individual, country level SMS gateway offers into a single platform, saving hundred
thousands USD on connection and operating fees.
