Summary
Christian Roy is a Lead Cloud Architect with over a decade building backend and API-driven systems using Node.js, Ruby on Rails and PHP, and deploying them on cloud and Kubernetes platforms. He specializes in subscription-based, database-driven websites and has deep experience with MySQL/PostgreSQL, Redis, Express, ActiveModel and a broad set of open-source frameworks. At Vi he learned and shipped Node.js services on Google Cloud and Kubernetes, blending hands‑on coding with cloud-native architecture and DevOps automation. He runs his own contracting practice and has a long history founding and leading engineering teams, from early PHP and Drupal work to modern microservices. Pragmatic about engagements, he prefers contract work and local or remote projects around Montreal, and occasionally takes small evening/weekend contracts. Colleagues would describe him as a practical problem-solver who quickly masters new stacks to deliver reliable, scalable systems.
