Grégoire Basset

Freelance Forward Deployed Engineer Jan 2026 — Present Independent — Perspicia, Espace à la Carte and other Paris clients ENGINEERING Languages TypeScript, Python, SQL, Ruby on Rails, – Turn vague business briefs into shipped systems: on-site scoping, then I build and deploy the product myself — data model, backend, Next.js front-end, third-party integrations. – Ship LLM agents and RAG pipelines into live client workflows, tuned to each company's data and vocabulary rather than dropped in as a generic assistant. – Wire clients' existing tools together — API integrations, webhooks and scheduled automations that run unattended once handed over.

Built and shipped the entire product solo — backend, front-end, data model, infra — from zero to a platform used daily in production. – Deployed on-site in 15+ restaurants: mapped each venue's real workflow, wrote the custom integration it needed, trained the staff, stayed on-call for production issues. – Shipped LLM agents and automation pipelines in production — customer intelligence, data-driven upsell, reservation handling — tuned per client context, not one generic model. – 2,000+ reservations generated in 6 months; €2K MRR from an SMB segment that buys nothing it can't use on day one. – Turned messy field feedback into roadmap: every deployment surfaced constraints that became core product, not custom debt.
