Summary
Fabian Lefèbre is an engineering lead in Berlin with nine years of experience building data-driven web products, specializing in React and Node.js and currently leading engineering at MEINE ERDE. He brings a rare blend of hands-on full-stack development and academic rigor—holding a PhD in physics—having moved from research that produced multiple first-author publications into product and platform engineering. Fabian has co-founded a startup where he led developer experience, design systems, interactive tooling, and frontend architecture, and later guided dashboards and ML visualization pipelines at The Adecco Group that integrated Scala/Spark and Airflow. Known for turning mocks into polished user experiences, he favors cloud-native, agile teams and measurable product outcomes, and he’s comfortable leading international teams while still diving deep into code and technical concepts. A practical problem-solver, he has a track record of inventing experimental setups and automation in research—an indication of his inclination to engineer elegant, reproducible solutions in production systems.
