CIRCLE IT — CLÉMENT · INDEPENDENT SOFTWARE ENGINEER

I design and build software.

I build both digital products and complex business software — from early ideas and architecture to code and user experience.

Babl

The game where every word brings you closer to the answer.

A word game based on semantic proximity, inspired by Cémantix. With every guess, Babl measures how close your word is to the one you are looking for. Solo and multiplayer modes.

For now, Babl is only available in French.

03 — ABOUT

About.

I've been building software for over ten years. I like working across the whole product: understanding the problem, getting the architecture right, writing the software, and making sure it works well for the people using it.

I've worked on complex business systems and on products built from scratch. An architecture interests me as much as a single interaction in an interface — and, above all, working out why something is being built before deciding how.

Getting better, understanding how things work, finding the right line. On the road and in the code.

04 — AWAY FROM THE KEYBOARD

Away from the keyboard.

When I'm not at a screen, I'm usually on a bike, in the mountains, or out on the road.

Most of my free time goes into sport, travelling and seeing new places.
