Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolTom Niget is a Professor and seasoned DevOps/system administrator with 11 years of hands-on experience building and maintaining application and system architectures across academia and industry. Based in Antibes, he teaches embedded systems, databases and system architecture while also contributing to R&D and production projects at Nexedi. He combines low-level systems work—demonstrated by substantive contributions to the Cosmos OS project improving console, keyboard and SVGA interactions—with higher-level web and ERP development (Python, PHP, Laravel, MariaDB). Tom also strengthens tooling and documentation for open-source projects like OpenTomb and Logisim-evolution, showing care for reproducible developer experience and localization. He’s comfortable bridging teaching, research and operational needs, and has a quieter specialty in compiling and toolchain work (Python-to-C++ compiler and static API-change analysis) that informs both his pedagogy and engineering.
