Summary
Thomas Riboulet is a founder and hands-on engineering leader with 15 years of experience helping EU and Canadian tech companies modernize infrastructure, scale backend systems, and grow engineering teams. As WA Systems' founder and fractional VP of Engineering, he combines deep technical execution—Ruby, Python, Terraform, Kubernetes, AWS/GCP—with strategic oversight on architecture, hiring, and process maturity. He has led high-impact migrations from monoliths to multi-region cloud platforms and PaaS-to-IaaS transitions for startups and scale-ups across energy, healthcare, construction, and SaaS. A longtime Ruby community organizer and technical writer, he elevates teams through training in TDD, incident management, and developer workflows. His background in platform and production engineering (Lyst, SMHW) means he balances reliability and performance with pragmatic delivery, often taking on both code and operational on-call responsibilities.
