Sébastien Billion is a seasoned backend Python engineer with over a decade of experience designing and delivering secure, scalable APIs and migration projects from legacy systems to cloud platforms. He has led full-stack rewrites, data sanitation and complex migrations at Jaccede, built asynchronous Python services (aiohttp, FastAPI POC) and Elasticsearch upgrades at UKG, and driven moves from on‑premise to GCP while enforcing strong testing and CI practices. Comfortable across the stack, he pairs hands‑on backend work with DevOps skills (AWS, Linux, PostgreSQL, Redis, ELK) and has shipped mobile and web clients earlier in his career. He favors pragmatic, well-documented code (PEP8, OpenAPI, pytest) and has experience integrating third‑party e‑signature providers and internal Kotlin services into large HR platforms. Based in Liège, Belgium, he describes himself as someone who “eats Python like a glouton,” reflecting a long-standing enthusiasm for the language beyond just production delivery. Colleagues rely on him for modernization efforts that combine data cleanup, performance tuning and secure, testable API design.
