Damien Villeneuve is a seasoned technical leader and CTO with 15+ years of experience building mobile-first products and backend services, currently steering engineering and AI adoption at Edison IA and BeApp from Nantes. He began as a hands-on Android and Java developer, expanded into iOS and server-side Java (Spring/Hibernate), and now combines product-minded architecture with pragmatic AI deployment for SMEs. An active open-source contributor and former tech-lead on AndroidAnnotations, he has a proven track record improving Android REST integrations and icon libraries used across the ecosystem. Damien blends Scrum-style delivery and technical mentorship—having served as Scrum Master on large field projects—with a taste for tooling and automation that surfaces in his GitHub work. He is equally comfortable shipping low-level mobile fixes and defining roadmaps that turn “wow” demos into measurable ROI within six months. Outside work he’s the creator of Lockito and enjoys cooking, a hint of the curiosity and precision he brings to engineering.
