I makegood software

I'm Alan - an engineer who's happiest turning a fuzzy idea into a shipped product. Frontend, backend, infra, the boring glue in between. I like the whole stack and I like it tidy.

// How I work

Four rules
I build by

01

Substance over bloat

Every dependency, every abstraction earns its place or it goes. The best feature is often the one you didn't build.

02

Ship, then sharpen

A real product in users hands beats a perfect one in my head. Iterate against reality, not assumptions.

03

Own the whole stack

Frontend pixels to deploy pipelines. Understanding the full path makes every layer better - and debugging far less mysterious.

04

Make it feel good

Software people enjoy using is built on purpose. Motion, copy, latency - the details are the product.

// What I can do for you

I can do that.

Build & ship products

From fuzzy idea to production - full-stack ownership, end-to-end. Frontend, backend, infra, the boring glue in between.

Own the infra

AWS architecture, CI/CD pipelines, Docker, security hardening. Including sensitive environments - HDS and ISO 27001 compliance.

Grow a dev team

Hiring, onboarding, mentoring. Done it from scratch - 1 to 12 engineers. I know what a good technical culture looks like and how to build it without a playbook.

Steer the tech

Solo technical lead in non-tech organisations. Product prioritisation, stakeholder management, turning business needs into actual product.

Automate & integrate

Internal tooling, scripts, integrations that save hours every week. The unglamorous work that makes everyone's life better.

// What people say

In their
own words.

I had the chance to meet Alan when I joined Helyx as CTO. It was one of my best professional encounters. Complete trust, excellent team management - he was a remarkable bridge between Arthur and myself. He rose to every challenge as his role evolved, from developer to Product Manager, including mentoring apprentices and employees. Regardless of years of experience, if you get the chance to work with Alan, you won't regret it - go for it!
Yohann Dulong CTO, Helyx
Hiring Alan was the best decision I made in 5 years. He was the first person I hired full-time, 8 months after founding Helyx. I was looking for someone to support me and take some of the development load off my plate - he was far more than that. From mentoring apprentices to deploying solutions, project management, client relations, and development - Alan proved to be a true right-hand man. There is very little he didn't learn and deliver during our 4.5 years together. If you have the opportunity to have Alan on your team, don't hesitate for a second!
Arthur Cougé CEO, Helyx
I had the pleasure of working with Alan on our custom memorial plaque configurator project. Great listening skills and the right expertise to sharpen our online software. Thank you again.
