Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolFlorian Cargoët is a freelance software and IoT engineer with 16 years of experience building web and embedded prototypes from concept to production. He blends front-end expertise (React, Redux, Backbone) and Node.js back-ends with hands-on electronics and firmware work on Arduino and low-power wireless stacks (BLE, Zigbee, Sigfox). Based in Caen, Normandy, he has led product development for startups and agencies while running his own consultancy since 2015. Florian contributes to open-source projects like converse.js, focusing on bug fixes, UX reliability and documentation for a widely used web XMPP client. Comfortable across Linux-based deployments and mobile (Cordova, React Native), he’s as likely to solder a sensor to an MCU as he is to ship a polished single-page app. His background in generalist engineering and entrepreneurship gives him a pragmatic, full-stack approach to connected product development.
