My name is Guillaume Launay, I'm a Fullsatck Developer since 2017 and also Data Engineer since 2023. I am passionate about computer science and new technologies, and I enjoy creating innovative solutions while putting the human element at the center of interactions. More generally, I am a cheerful and positive person who enjoys cooking and sports, especially outdoors.
After founding my own startup at the end of my studies, I gained solid experience in web development, particularly with technologies such as PHP and NodeJS. With this experience under my belt, I then expanded my skill set by pursuing training in data analysis, delving into the world of Python, Spark, Airflow, etc. My diverse background has enabled me to master different facets of technology, combining DevOps, Backend, Frontend, and Data all under AGILE project management and with an entrepreneurial spirit.
My academic journey began with obtaining a high school diploma with a specialization in computer science, which reinforced my passion for the field. I then continued my studies by earning a University Diploma of Technology (DUT) followed by a bachelor's degree in web development. With these solid foundations, I recently enhanced my skills by obtaining a diploma as a Data Engineer. This last step of my education was particularly captivating as it allowed me to dive deeper into the world of data, their manipulation, analysis, and exploitation.

Recently, I contributed to the development of two new modules for third-year Bachelor of University
Technology (BUT) students:
One module focused on deployment automation, aiming to teach the necessary techniques and tools to
simplify and optimize application deployment processes.
Another module on code maintenance, emphasizing best practices and effective strategies to ensure the
durability and quality of software applications.
