Project under NDA
In progress
🔒 NDA🛠 In progress📅 Autumn 2026

The one project I can't show you: under NDA, it takes up most of my calendar until autumn 2026. Everything else on this page is the measure of what's being built there.

Locked details

A major NDA product is in the works — shipping autumn 2026.

02 What I build

A product, not a demo

My core craft · Founding Engineer

I build your product, from idea to launch

I design, code and ship real web & mobile products — solo or with your team. You start with an idea, you leave with a live product.

How we start

  1. You describe your project 2 minutes, no jargon. Advanced fields if you're technical.
  2. You receive your blueprint Scope, approach, next steps. No commitment.
  3. We build together Firm quote, then we build, ship and go live.

03 Workflow

The Product Engineer method

Spec → Plan → AI Blitz → Polish. AI is a multiplier under human supervision, never a substitute.

1

Spec & Vision

Writing the product vision and design doc. Hardening specs, edge cases, security and UX frustrations before a single line of code.

2

Tech Plan

An implementation plan broken into numbered, sequential tasks. Architecture is settled up front to frame how the agents execute.

3

AI Blitz

Parallel delegation to AI agents via an orchestration workflow. The feature is delivered atomically and full-vertical (from DB to UI and i18n).

4

Polish & Review

Demanding, Tech-Lead-grade review. Fast deployment to main, thorough production testing, rapid fixes with an immediate feedback loop.

04 Credibility

What I work with, and what backs it

A modern, edge-native stack — and certifications that back the expertise.

05 Who for?

Is this for you?

  • you're launching a 0→1 product
  • you need an end-to-end builder
  • you're hiring your first Product / Founding Engineer
  • you need to inherit an existing product and accelerate

Founding Engineer for 0→1 missions, critical rebuilds and complete products.

Fully booked until autumn 2026 — reach out to reserve an upcoming slot.

How do you work? Where do you operate?
Hybrid — remote by default, and on-site in Île-de-France (Paris + inner ring) for kick-offs, sensitive workshops and critical missions. Outside Île-de-France: 100% remote with regular sync points (video, Slack, Linear).
What is your day rate / pricing model?
Indicative day rate between €450 and €650 (excl. VAT), scaled by mission type: short audits and focused expertise €550–700, long missions (> 20 days) €400–550, monthly retainer / fractional with a tapered rate. I prefer fixed-price when the scope is clear — flat price, no overrun risk on your side. Always a firm quote after a free 30-min scoping call; I never bill hourly.
When is your next availability?
Fully booked: I'm currently engaged on a project, next open slot in autumn 2026. For emergencies or flash missions (< 5 days), I try to fit within existing slots — send me the context and I'll confirm feasibility within 24h.
What do I get at the end of a mission?
The source code in your repo (yours from day one), operational documentation (README, architecture, incident runbooks), versioned infrastructure scripts (IaC where applicable), a live handover with your team, and a post-delivery support window of at least 2 weeks for adjustments.

Shall we build your product?

Describe it in 2 minutes, you leave with your blueprint.
