Recommendations

What colleagues and clients say

I had the pleasure of working with Mickael at Storengy (Engie Group), where he quickly proved to be an outstanding addition to our development team.

From day one, Mickael integrated seamlessly into the team. His adaptability and collaborative mindset made it feel like he had been with us for years. Beyond his excellent interpersonal skills, his technical abilities are truly impressive — he is a versatile full-stack developer with a particularly strong expertise on the frontend side, and a remarkably broad command of modern web technologies.

What sets Mickael apart is the rare combination of autonomy, initiative, and speed without ever compromising on quality. He delivers fast, and he delivers well. I entrusted him with significant responsibilities on a key project, and he rose to the occasion — the application he worked on is now used daily by hundreds of users across the organization.

He also stands out for his ability to truly understand client expectations and translate them into creative, pragmatic solutions that hit the mark. On top of that, he is always eager to learn and genuinely committed to sharing knowledge with his teammates, making everyone around him better in the process.

I wholeheartedly recommend Mickael. He is an undeniable asset for any team tackling serious projects that demand both top-tier technical skills and strong human qualities. Any organization would be lucky to have him.

Mickael is a great developer; his expertise in ReactJS, NextJS, NodeJS, and TypeScript, as well as his ability to influence other developers, the way he explains complex technical knowledge to his colleagues, his natural leadership, and the way he contributes to the team, were very valuable during our time at Index Labs.

If you are considering bringing someone to your team, I couldn't recommend him strongly enough.

I've known Mickael both professionally and personally, and I can honestly say he's one of the most skilled engineers I've worked with. He's a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with a strong frontend focus, and his expertise in React, Node.js, TypeScript, and Next.js really shows in the quality and stability of the products he builds.

What stands out most is his ability to rebuild failing platforms and delivering products from start to finishwith confidence and clarity. With 9 years of remote experience, he's reliable, communicative, and consistently delivers high-level work. Beyond the technical skills, he's also a great person to collaborate with — professional, thoughtful, and genuinely supportive.

Any team would be lucky to have Mickael on board.

Mickael combines strong technical expertise with a real eye for detail and user experience. He has a deep understanding of modern front-end frameworks and best practices. Beyond his technical ability, he doesn't just build features, he thinks critically about performance, usability, accessibility, and long-term sustainability.

He collaborates seamlessly with Product, Design, QA, and Backend teams, always bringing thoughtful input and constructive challenge when needed. He is proactive in identifying improvements, reducing technical debt, and raising the overall quality bar of the team.

Mickael is reliable, solution-oriented, and calm under pressure. Whether working on complex UI challenges, optimising performance, or supporting release cycles, he consistently demonstrates professionalism and a strong commitment to excellence.
