valeriansaliou/README.md

👋 Hey! I am Valerian.

I am a Software Engineer and Product Designer. I spend my time building things.

What I am working on:

  • I am currently CTO at Crisp, a customer support SaaS, that I co-founded with Baptiste Jamin.
  • On the side, I am also working on Prose, a decentralized team messaging app, powered by XMPP.
  • I have a personal website, on which I sometimes blog, publish my projects and list books I have read.
  • I maintain popular OSS projects: Sonic (search index), Vigil (status page), Sales Tax (VAT calculator), and more.
  • Oh, and one last thing: I co-invented MakAir, the world's first open-source medical ventilator.

What I am interested in:

  • My domains of expertise are: messaging, protocols, cryptography, the XMPP standard, Rust programming, JavaScript full-stack development, application design, distributed systems, microservices and fault-tolerant architectures.
  • On my spare time, I also like to learn about: economics, 3D printing and CAD modeling.

🔒 All of my work gets signed with my 🔑GPG key. Use it to verify the authenticity of anything I publish.
