Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGilles Lavaux is a Senior Software Engineer with 12+ years focused on Earth Observation systems, primarily delivering mission-critical dissemination and conversion tools for ESA while based in Rome. He has designed and maintained end-to-end pipelines—EoSip converters, an orchestrator (DACT), mass downloaders and live conversion chains—that make large EO datasets searchable, preservable and user-ready. Comfortable across full-stack development, GIS standards (WMS/WFS, reprojection), databases and virtualization, he brings a pragmatic engineering approach that balances delivery, quality and long-term data stewardship. Notably, he built the EoliServer from scratch early in his career, a service still in operational use, demonstrating an ability to create durable infrastructure. Colleagues rely on him for 3rd-level support, tooling and configuration management across multi-mission platforms.
