Auguste Rame is a bilingual (French/English) Software Engineer II with a decade of experience spanning full-stack web work and systems programming in languages from JavaScript (React, Svelte) to Zig, Rust, and Go. He has shipped compiler- and language-tooling work—contributing to the Zig compiler and the Zig language server—and built production features at Sourcegraph, including cross-editor abstractions for the Cody AI product. As a founding engineer at ZML he designed a PyTorch-compatible ML inference API and implemented a streaming-capable reimplementation of Facebook’s EnCodec integrated with FFmpeg, demonstrating both low-level systems skill and ML engineering fluency. Recent roles include short, impact-focused engineering stints at TigerBeetle and tvScientific, and he now continues his work at Pinterest following an acquisition. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic polyglot who bridges developer tooling, compiler internals, and practical product features.
