Summary
François Vaux is a Frontend Engineering Manager with 18 years’ experience building TypeScript-driven web applications and leading small to mid-sized teams across diverse business contexts. He combines hands-on frontend and backend skills—often championing pragmatic architectural choices—and has a track record of designing DDD-inspired platforms on GCP, developer tooling, and performance-focused UI libraries. A Linux and open-source enthusiast who experiments through side projects (from a personal blog engine to heavy-data plotting tools), he thrives on understanding systems from the bare metal to the end user. At StrangeBee and Akeneo he moved from senior engineer to technical lead/manager roles, mentoring teams, reducing technical debt, and improving cross-team collaboration. Calm, positive, and a little bit of a playful tech-troll, he’s experienced in integrating remote workers and making practical trade-offs that ship value.
