Christophe Buguet
Chief Technical Officier (CTO)
Maxime has been a wonderful team mate and friend for many years, from its internship at SQLI to its full time position in my team at Cinémur. He is a talented developer who understands the whole technical stack. While he has developed strong skills on Apple platforms, he is also very open to technologies and has successfully implemented various projects and prototypes using Ruby, Java, and used databases such as PostgreSQL or Google BigQuery.

He can work fast and think of efficient solutions to problems, and suggest improvements while working with all departments of the company. I strongly recommend him to whoever is looking for a reliable developer for its project.
