Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolDamien Cavaillès is a multidisciplinary tech journalist and former founder with 11 years of experience building communities, products and editorial programs for developers. He led WeLoveDevs for a decade—growing it into a multimedia newsroom and an 80,000-strong developer community while steering commercial strategy and investor relations. Today he combines hands-on tech sensibility (mobile and web engineering roots) with editorial craft, hosting high-impact webinars and producing formats that surface practitioner knowledge rather than promotion. At leboncoin Tech and with Free-Work and Insitoo he structures storytelling and peer-to-peer exchange to advance collective practice in tech hiring and freelance life. Based in Lille, he mixes product-minded thinking with a journalist’s ear for nuance—often working behind the scenes to amplify voices and ideas developers care about. Notably, he transitioned his startup into a new chapter in 2025 while preserving the editorial line that still guides his projects.
