Senior🎓
Top SchoolOlivier Buffon is a Senior Ruby Developer based in Montreal with 11 years of experience building and scaling backend systems for high-traffic web products. He has led engineering efforts from greenfield architecture to production scale — notably growing Chronogolf’s Ruby backend to support hundreds of thousands of daily users and owning message-driven infrastructures at OpenFleet using Elixir and RabbitMQ. A co-founder and principal backend engineer at Homeric, he blends hands-on implementation with product-focused team building. Passionate about web technologies, Olivier pairs deep Ruby expertise with strong interest and practical experience in Elixir and distributed systems. He is as comfortable optimizing real-time data pipelines and search stacks (Elasticsearch, Postgres, Redis) as mentoring teams through growth and scaling challenges.
