Summary
Benjamin Lacroix is a senior software engineer with over a decade of experience designing and scaling high-performance web platforms, particularly in adtech and data-heavy systems. Based in Montpellier, he has led end-to-end projects from legacy migrations and self-serve platform launches to complex ingestion pipelines, blending architecture, observability, and CI/CD improvements. He moves fluidly across front-end (React, federated modules), backend (Java, Scala), and data tooling, and routinely reduces cost and technical debt while raising engineering standards through mentoring and QA leadership. His hands-on work includes analytics tracking (GA4/GTM), LLM-assisted development, and pragmatic UX-focused technical decisions that improve product reliability. Known for optimizing both runtime performance and delivery speed, he pairs deep systems thinking with a developer-first approach to tooling and testing. An enthusiast on GitHub, he brings a continuous-improvement mindset born from diverse roles spanning mobile, embedded C++ and large-scale web engineering.
