Romain Janvier is an expert PHP/Symfony developer with 13 years of experience delivering high-performance web platforms, microservices and API-first architectures for both large media sites and product teams. Based in Nancy, France, he combines lead-developer responsibilities with hands-on coding, upgrading legacy applications, introducing robust CI/test suites (Codeception, PHPStan, Docker) and coaching teams on agile and quality practices. His background includes building resilient CQRS/event-sourcing systems at Klaxoon and leading major refactors and migrations for high-traffic editorial sites, demonstrating strong operational and performance-focused instincts. Outside PHP, he contributes to notable open-source 3D/photogrammetry projects (openMVG, MicMac, CloudCompare), showing a practical interest in computer vision and cross-platform engineering. Currently freelancing through mid-2026, he blends architecture-level thinking with pragmatic delivery and an eye for tooling that prevents regressions.
