Elias Showk
Bonjour, I'm a french software engineer since 2008 working mainly on the backend. I'm an experimenter used to fast-paced development and innovation cycles but I can also work on complex and mature code-bases. I can handle almost all the technical responsibilities from the front-end to the server configuration, distributed tasks processing and continuous delivery and integration. I can work on conception from zero to production, handle scalability, and monitoring issues. Ownership, transparence, communication, delivery, collective team work are some of my objectives day to day. I'm passionate about the web, building APIs, natural language processing applications. I'm working full-remote since 2018, but I always move on-site when needed. I like working asynchronously with written specifications, but I'm also at ease with live discussions followed by fast prototyping and proof of concepts.
