Norman Breau is a Full Stack Developer from Moncton with 11 years of hands-on experience building interactive web and mobile applications, currently leading engineering work at TotalPave and running Breautek. He blends front-end and back-end expertise—shipping Node.js servers, multiple web and mobile clients, and handling database and system administration—while contributing significant fixes and feature support to Apache Cordova (including Android build improvements and camera/file plugin hardening). Norman created the Fuse Framework and has a history of architecting tooling and visual programming libraries, reflecting a deep interest in developer ergonomics and cross-platform UX. Comfortable moving between product code, documentation, and build systems, he’s as likely to refactor a Gradle build as to design a responsive UI.
