Billaud
I build distributed systems and data pipelines that hold up under real load — reliability, performance, scalability, and observability.
[002] // ABOUT
A bit about me
I am a software engineer with 4+ years of experience building data pipelines and distributed systems. I thrive most working in an environment where architecture decisions have immediate, measurable consequences on how real businesses operate.
Outside of software development, I am either playing tennis, staying up-to-date with latest tech news, relaxing at the beach, or thinking about my next personal project.
