I’m Thibaud, a Technical Lead specialized in Web technologies.
I’m interested in impactful work that makes a difference, open-source software, and sharing my learnings with others. If you care about diverse communities and fighting the good fight, we’ll do great things together.

Ever heard of the Joel Test? It’s a simple 12 question measure of the quality of a software team, introduced by Joel Spolsky of Stack Overflow and Trello fame. The test is famous in the software development community as a no-BS calculation of the maturity of a development team. So, how’d we do?

I’m a self-diagnosed data nerd. For me, there’s nothing like trying to make sense of a phenomenon by looking at data, exploring an uncharted dataset to uncover insights. Sure, I don’t expect everyone to be as excited as I am about the release of the latest seasonally adjusted chain-volume GDP – but I do think that basic data literacy is becoming a vital part of running a successful business, or being an informed citizen.

Springload regularly attends development sprints of Wagtail. They’re a great occasion to meet with other core contributors, and drive the project together towards the needs of its users, aka our clients. In the past our work has taken us to Ede, Netherlands, and Cape Town, South Africa but this time we headed North to Reykjavík, Iceland thanks to our friends at Overcast Software.

We’ve been trialing new front-end tools and libraries over 2015 but our main stack has remained very stable. Starting a new project? Here are Springload’s picks, all available in our front-end starter kit.
I highly recommend Thibaud.
I have been working with him for the past 2 years and he has been a great workmate and then director.
His technical skills are really good and he is always keen to learn and explore new technologies. He is a keen teacher and happy to share about his experiments so everyone can jump on board. Thibaud is also really focused on code quality and a keen advocate for code formatting, unit testing, performance improvement, etc.
In terms of management skills Thibaud has been a great manager. Always supporting his team and always trying to understand the situation to get the best compromise for all the parties involved. He knows how to be strict if required but also how to trust his team when needed. He has a great diplomacy sense and knows how to get the most of everyone. This gives a great emulation inside the team to deliver better work in better conditions.
Thibaud is an avid developer. He quickly grasps complex problems and goes beyond the expectations of his managers. Thanks to his great coaching skills and clear explanations, he helped his colleagues to improve themselves. It’s a pleasure to work with him and I recommend him with my eyes closed.
An incredible analytical capability, an undeniable technical background and a great customer relationship.
Thibaud is a leader and he knows how to drive his team throughout the project.
Thibaud was an excellent intern and collaborator.
Motivated and passionate, always on the lookout for new tools or processes to improve quality and productivity. Thibaud is also an excellent speaker able to animate interesting presentations and Lightning Talks, especially around JavaScript, Web Performance and Open-Source Solutions.
