👤
Senior
🎓
Top School
Pierre Hilt is a seasoned front-end engineering leader with 11 years of experience, currently managing front-end software engineering at Symphony from Antibes, France. He combines deep hands-on expertise in JavaScript and Angular with backend familiarity (Java, Spring) to deliver responsive, accessible web applications and robust developer tooling. At Amadeus he led feature teams, introduced automated testing practices (including contributions to the Geb test framework) and built frameworks and CI pipelines that scaled across a large B2B platform. Known for mentoring teams and improving delivery processes, he blends product-minded UI design work with solid engineering discipline and Scrum practices. His aerospace engineering background and early work on optimization and prototyping hint at a strong analytical and systems-thinking approach uncommon in front-end leaders. Pragmatic and curious, he bridges legacy systems and modern front-end architectures while championing test automation and developer experience.
