I am Adrien, a software engineer passionate about developper experience, home automation, self hosting, and cybersecurity.
Currently, I work as a Fullstack Software Engineer at elmy. In this role, I lead the implementation of critical B2C features using NodeJS, Typescript, and React. I also focus heavily on enhancing developer experience, through the configuration and intergration of modern tooling (like Biome.js, Vitest, Testcontainers, or Storybook), as well as optimizing the infrastructure supporting our projects, with Terraform, Kubernetes, and Docker.
I have previously worked at Rtone, as an Embedded Software Engineer for Linux devices. My daily activities there led me work closely with tools such as the Yocto Project, Docker, U-Boot, QEMU, and Azure IoT. I have also had the opportunity to improve my DevOps skills, by using Ansible to help improve the internal infrastructure, and Azure Devops to create CI/CD pipelines used to test, build, and deploy the code we write.
My two main programming languages as of 2025 are Python and Typescript, always accompanied by a fleet of tools to help navigate my code, and keep it clean, typed, and tested. I have some familiarity with C/C++, Rust, and Go, which I would like to develop further in the future!
In 2020, I obtained a Master’s Degree in Computer Science and Engineering from the Pennsylvania State University. During this degree, I was a member of the Systems and Internet Infrastructure Security Laboratory, under the advising of Pr. Patrick McDaniel.
During my stay in the SIIS Lab, my research focus was on Intrusion Detection Systems for Internet of Things (IoT) environments. As part of my research, I built a framework that aims at detecting discrepancies between physical and logical state in a device, in order to identify potential malicious activity. The results of this work can be found in my thesis.
Before joining Penn State, I obtained an Engineer’s Degree from the École Centrale de Lyon, which I attended after completing my two years of classe prĂ©paratoire at the LycĂ©e Saint-Louis.
