years old · Junior developer · Computer science graduate (BUT)
Available now
A computer science graduate (BUT Informatique) with one year as a work-study developer in the Pricing team at Norauto International, I am looking for a first developer position where I can keep learning alongside a team and build experience on real projects. Drawn to data and automation, I am equally at ease on the back end (C#, Java, SQL) and in data processing (SQL Server, Snowflake).
I graduated in 2026 with a BUT Informatique, a three-year computer science degree from the IUT de Lille, and spent my final year as a work-study developer in the Pricing team at Norauto International, working on large-scale data collection and processing. I now want to join a company as a developer to learn from experienced professionals, grow my skills on real projects and build genuine hands-on experience. I am convinced that software is a field where you never stop learning, and that is exactly what motivates me.
Outside of code, weight training taught me discipline and consistency, video games feed my creativity and competitive spirit, and philosophy gives me perspective and sharpens my critical thinking.
At Norauto, the websites we collected from changed constantly: new page structures, new anti-bot measures, captchas we had never seen. Any morning could bring its share of broken scrapers to fix urgently, because we delivered daily. I learned to prioritise critical tasks quickly and to make decisions under time pressure without being overwhelmed.
I am calm by nature and do not panic when things go wrong. I take the time to step back, analyse the situation and make the right call rather than rushing. Knowing that I can be absent-minded, I set up a systematic note-taking habit for everything I do, which keeps me organised and stops anything from slipping through.
During my work-study year I managed my own priorities every day: keeping production running first, new developments second. I reported progress to my manager in regular check-ins, but the organisation of my work was mine. That responsibility taught me that I am more capable than I thought, as long as I trust myself and use common sense.
When setting up new scrapers, I had to understand exactly what the business units needed: which products to target, which attributes to collect to enable competitor comparison. My manager, as Product Owner, acted as the go-between, but I could also talk directly with the business units, mostly through tickets. I made a point of restating the need in my own words to avoid misunderstandings.
When in doubt, I go to the right people without hesitation. At Norauto: my tech lead for technical questions, my manager (PO) for business expectations, or my senior colleague for anything about the solution itself. I learned that asking questions is not a weakness but an essential skill for moving forward efficiently.
Although I worked autonomously, setting up new scrapers required close collaboration. I relied on everyone's expertise: my tech lead for product specifics, my senior colleague for deep knowledge of the solution, and the colleagues in direct contact with the French, Belgian, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese business units for information on production pipelines. Before starting a new development, I checked with the team what already existed so as to build on it.
Cambridge C1 certificate, built over years of speaking English online and a European section in English at high school.
A price intelligence and pricing support tool for PC components. Every morning a Java batch collects the prices of about fifteen products from six retailers, quarantines doubtful readings, then a strategy engine proposes a price explained rule by rule. A modular monolith in hexagonal architecture, every decision documented in an ADR. Results can be explored live in the demo.
A browser extension (Edge / Chrome) that watches the current URL and, depending on your settings, closes or redirects the tab after a configurable time limit. Comes with a Focus mode that instantly blocks every listed site, a dark mode and a French/English interface.
View project →Deal Express was built in one week by five third-year students. It is a game where you move through a story together and make choices to explore the different possible endings. The point of the game is to discover the different decision-making modes and the situations where each one fits best.
View project →An original game developed by a team of three as a university project. The brief was met in full with a working result despite a short deadline. Git issues were used effectively to manage the project.
A client/server messaging application. Full architecture with a Java back end, a PostgreSQL database and a web front end. I mainly handled the database and back-end parts. This university project let us apply the MVC pattern to a real project.
A data classification application developed by a team of four. This university project let us practise clean code and Git workflows in real conditions.
My portfolio is a small opportunity to practise web technologies. It is one of the first concrete projects I built and it keeps evolving. It has changed a lot over time, been redesigned several times, and I still maintain it actively, adding every new project.
A team of 7 running competitive price intelligence for several international business units (France, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Portugal). The team provides the data behind pricing decisions on products and services.
Autonomy: I managed my own priorities day to day, keeping production running before starting new developments. Regular check-ins with my manager, who acted as Product Owner. Direct exchanges with the business units, mostly through tickets.
A team of 3 within the Pricing department. First immersion in a professional data environment.
Sterilisation department. A formative experience in team cohesion and working with new people.
First professional experience. Learning to communicate within a team and to settle in step by step.
What my work-study year and my professional experiences taught me about myself, my strengths and where I still need to grow.
Before working in a company, autonomy scared me. I doubted my ability to handle real responsibilities on my own. In practice, I discovered that when I trust myself and use common sense, I am perfectly capable of being autonomous. The turning point was understanding that you just need to not be afraid of asking questions when you need help: autonomy does not mean doing everything alone.
My biggest area for improvement is proactive curiosity and communication in the broad sense. I tend to stay focused on what I am asked to do and to live in my bubble, without trying to understand the wider context around me.
Yet knowing my environment better, the processes, everyone's role, how the other teams work, would make me more effective and let me know immediately who to turn to when needed. It is something I am actively working on.
Application development track: software design, development, validation and maintenance. Third year as a work-study developer at Norauto International.
First year completed, then switched to computer science.
Computer science and mathematics majors. European section in English.
