Summary
Pierre Baron is a senior full-stack engineer and Team Lead based in London with 11 years of experience building performant, accessible web applications—primarily in video streaming and analytics. At Qumu he leads a multidisciplinary team of five, owning projects end-to-end from functional specs and prototypes to deployment, demos, and documentation. He couples deep frontend expertise (Vue, Stencil, TypeScript, Sass) with backend work on NestJS and Google Cloud, and has driven measurable improvements such as slimming a video player while expanding features. Pierre is a strong advocate for web accessibility and has successfully influenced product direction to make streaming more inclusive. He fosters a knowledge-sharing culture through pair programming, documentation and reviews, and brings a practical knack for translating complex specifications into manageable technical plans. Outside the obvious, his background in home automation and early work with HLS gives him a systems-oriented perspective on embedded constraints and streaming performance.
