Summary
Yann Richard is a former intellectual property lawyer turned full‑stack developer who brings 13 years of experience advising research institutions and startups on IP, contracts and tech transfer to software engineering roles. After an intensive full‑stack training at Wild Code School and hands‑on Angular and React project work, he has built practical web and admin interfaces backed by NodeJS and MySQL. Comfortable drafting and negotiating complex legal agreements in French and English, he combines that contract‑level rigor with a taste for clean, maintainable code and product-focused features. Based in the Greater Lyon area, he has worked inside university valorization teams and in industry, bringing a rare mix of legal-strategic thinking and front‑end/back‑end development skills to bridge research, commercialization and digital product delivery. Notably, his background in IP means he’s especially attuned to building software that supports compliance, licensing and data‑sharing workflows.
