Hey, I'm Axel Shaïta

Engineering Manager, backend-minded software engineer, AI enthusiast, and French tech blogger.

I help teams build useful software with clear architecture, sustainable engineering practices, and a pragmatic relationship with AI.

What I care about

• Engineering leadership that keeps delivery, quality, and people in balance.
• Pragmatic software architecture, especially in backend systems.
• AI-assisted development, developer experience, and how engineering work is changing.
• Technical writing that clarifies decisions and tradeoffs.

Topics I enjoy

Writing

I blog in French at Code Heroes, mostly about software engineering, technical decisions, JavaScript/TypeScript, architecture, and lessons from engineering management.
