Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRégis Desgroppes is a senior software engineer with 12+ years building developer productivity, CI/CD and scalable build systems—most recently becoming the internal Bazel expert while enabling continuous deployment at rideOS/Gopuff and shaping core build and observability tooling at CARIAD. He alternates between individual contributor and engineering manager roles to both ship deep technical solutions (Bazel, Micronaut, Kubernetes, multi-language toolchains) and amplify team effectiveness across large organizations like HERE and Daimler. His background in electrical and software engineering and early embedded/real-time work inform a pragmatic approach to performance and reproducibility, from cross-compilation to cloud-native microservices. Comfortable across Python, C++, Java, Scala and Go, he pairs multi-threaded and functional thinking with strong DevOps/DevSecOps culture and open-source engagement. Based in Berlin, he’s known for mentoring dozens of engineers, driving company-wide CI improvements (e.g., GitLab adoption at HERE) and quietly solving the brittle parts of developer workflows that most teams tolerate.
