Hello, I'm Jonathan, the person engineers escalate to, recovering founder, and local elected official, somewhere between the French Alps and an OpenBSD terminal.
I started Rwigo and ran it for 8 years before merging it into La Chouette Co, which I later sold to AViSTO / Advans Group. I then stayed on as Technical Manager for the Rhône-Alpes region at AViSTO, where I lead engineering teams across AI, cybersecurity, and application development for clients big and small, from startups to listed companies.
Away from the keyboard, I hold another mandate: Deputy Mayor for Finance in Bernin (Isère), a 3,500-inhabitant town where I run the municipal budget and local taxation. It's a very concrete school of decision-making and compromise, a healthy counterweight to my tech days.
The rest of the time, I {s,h}lack on OpenBSD, run local LLMs, play with various CPU architectures (RISC-V, ARM, and the more exotic ones), and I'm getting into electronics. I like systems you can understand end to end, whether they're written in C, in public finance, or running inference on my own silicon._
