Summary
Félix Defrance is an Ingénieur Full Stack with 10 years of experience, blending mobile and web expertise to build accessible, mission-driven software for mobility, sport and environmental causes. He led the complete refactor and CI/CD rollout of the INPN Espèces participatory-science mobile app at the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle, improving accessibility and production deployment across iOS and Android. Comfortable across a modern stack—Flutter (Riverpod, Isar), SvelteKit/Tailwind, Supabase/Directus and lightweight Rust/TypeScript backends—he favors pragmatic, open-source-first solutions. Félix pairs technical depth (Python, Rust, TS) with product-minded UX work and a strong focus on accessibility and operational reliability. Now at Software Heritage, he continues to apply his civic-minded engineering lens to public-interest projects. Outside of code he’s an endurance outdoor enthusiast and gardener, reflecting a sustained commitment to sustainability and durable design.
