Summary
Vianney Willot is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building customer-facing and internal web applications across consulting, automotive, and retail domains. He blends a scientist’s rigor—rooted in graduate research in entomology—with pragmatic engineering practices like TDD, pair programming, and CI/CD to improve code and product quality. Vianney has mentored and onboarded engineers, led agile transformations, and helped startups iterate quickly on product-market fit while also driving DevOps and Terraform improvements. His recent roles include staff and senior engineering consultancy at Artium and a current senior engineering position at Kohl’s, reflecting a mix of hands-on delivery and technical leadership. Comfortable across Node and React and familiar with Spring Boot and multiple front-end frameworks, he thrives in teams that value rapid learning and process improvement. An atypical path from field research and pest-management service roles to software engineering gives him a strong analytical mindset and a knack for turning messy problems into testable solutions.
