Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSyphax Bouazzouni is a Senior Software Engineer based in Berlin with eight years of experience building scalable web platforms using Ruby on Rails (Hotwire), Java Spring Boot, and modern front-end frameworks like React and Next.js. He blends hands-on backend architecture with front-end UX sensitivity, routinely working across MySQL, PostgreSQL and MongoDB while following Agile practices. Beyond product engineering, he has led teams, mentored developers, and taken technical ownership of international semantic-web platforms such as BioPortal, AgroPortal and BiodivPortal. His open-source contributions to OntoPortal and collaborations with institutions like Stanford, InfAI and LifeWatch ERIC reflect a rare mix of production-grade engineering and research in Web Semantics (RDF, SKOS, SPARQL). Fluent in English and French and learning German, he thrives in diverse, cross-functional teams and favors pragmatic, clean architecture. Colleagues would describe him as a pragmatic problem-solver who writes code that works—until it doesn’t—and then fixes it reliably.
