I'm an astrophysics researcher, mathematician and software engineer currently developing web applications and chemical evolution models for galaxies.
I work at the ESA's European Space Astronomy Centre as part of the science operations team.
An Open Source and Open Science advocate, I like to contribute patches, code or help to knowledge-sharing, open and collaboration projects.
I'm part of the editorial board of the Journal of Open Source Software where I also build open source editorial tools. I've worked as advisor on open source public policies and contributed code to many popular libraries like Rails or Astropy. I'm member of the founder team of Consul, the more widely used open sourced citizen participation software.
As independent software consultant I'm available for technical advising, architecture/application design, Ruby and Rails and Python code reviews, team mentoring and product management.
