Adrian Tombu is a freelance Principal Software Engineer and fractional CTO with 11 years of experience designing and implementing distributed systems, often on greenfield projects or modernizing legacy stacks. Based in Montauban, France, he blends hands-on Rust development and infrastructure automation (Terraform, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL) with product-minded leadership from roles as CTO and lead engineer. He has built web and desktop apps—using axum, Lit webcomponents and Slint—and guided small teams through hiring, code review, and delivery for clients including TF1, Orange and Fnac. Adrian’s background ranges from front-end roots to systems engineering, and he frequently operates at the intersection of R&D and production engineering for SMEs.
