Franck Rasolo is a hands-on software architect and engineer based in London with over 21 years of experience building and mentoring teams to deliver robust backend systems. He blends deep practical expertise with a focus on maintainable, testable code, evidenced by contributions to the core of the Groovy language where he improved classpath handling and core runtime behavior. Comfortable operating across architecture and implementation, he routinely introduces tests and fixes that prevent subtle runtime issues rather than just adding features. Known as a pragmatic problem-solver and mentor, he favors clear design and incremental improvements that reduce long-term technical debt.
