I was in charge of leading the Online Shopper Squad, one of the two feature teams of the technical team. This role was divided into three main areas of focus: * Day-to-day delivery follow-up in collaboration with the squad's Product Manager * Technical leadership and steering of squad features * Squad management and improvement of technical team processes ### Day-to-Day Delivery Follow-Up In collaboration with the squad's Product Manager, I was responsible for following up on the squad's delivery of features during sprints. ### Technical Leadership and Steering I was responsible for reviewing and conducting technical research, deep dives, and technical specifications for new features and improvements to existing features. ### Squad Management and Improvement of Processes I held regular syncs with team members (one-on-ones) and long-term career planning (through performance reviews). I also took charge of some improvements of existing processes as well as creating new ones to help the team develop new skills: * Lead a cross-squad initiative regarding Incident Roleplays * Formalising onboarding of new team members to quickly have them operational, finishing by successfully handling their first on-call shift * Helped define a new cross-functional role: Technical Representative, to alleviate bottlenecks on lead developers while giving more ownership on new features on a product vision.

Joined Epitech in 3rd special year following my two years at the University Institute of Technology of Dijon. The 3rd special year at Epitech is an intense year where the students must accomplish most of the projects of the first three years at Epitech, including the pools. During that year, I worked on projects creating command line tools, rewriting functions of the C standard library but I also created full fledged applications and games including a Skype clone and a R-type clone. Furthermore, at the beginning of the third year, I passed the Test of English for International Communication (TOEIC) with a score of 940 out of 990. During the two following years, I've had the chance to split my time between school and industry work. I used this opportunity to joined at first Emma et Chloé then followed by CoursAvenue. I've also used those two years to attend courses about topics helpful in entrepreneurship: Management, finance, strategy, internet law, etc.
