Summary
Pierre Teyssier is a seasoned software engineering leader with 12 years of experience building and scaling teams across Europe and Asia, now serving as Director of Software Engineering at Qlik in Beijing. He has a strong track record at Talend where he grew and managed a 25-person distributed team and drove connectivity roadmaps for major cloud and enterprise systems (Snowflake, Azure, GCP, AWS, Salesforce, SAP, etc.). A hands-on former Java lead and support lead, Pierre consistently improves product quality and delivery—his coaching and process changes materially reduced bugs and tripled team commit activity on major releases. He blends technical depth (PL/SQL, J2EE, ETL/ELT integrations, Git/Git training) with people-focused management practices that produced zero turnover for three years. Known for being proactive, integrity-driven and a force of proposal, he also brings a light touch of humor that helps cross-cultural collaboration in international teams. Less obvious: he pairs operational rigor with recruiter and trainer experience, routinely improving team autonomy through structured buddy systems and targeted skills programs.
