"I had the pleasure of working with Xavier for almost 8 years in LeasePlan/Ayvens. For some of that time Xavier reported directly to me in his capacity as a Team Manager. For other periods of time he was not reporting to me directly but we collaborated regularly in his role as Senior Software Developer for many of our most critical applications. I can say with confidence that Xavier is a very capable and senior Full-Stack Software Developer who brings a wealth of experience, technical knowledge, and expertise to the table. He readily mastered all technologies we worked with, and proved many times that he has excellent problems solving skills. He has a great work ethic, is happy to roll-up his sleeves on operational tasks, and is always willing to go the extra mile to deliver on personal and team commitments. His friendly professional attitude makes him a joy to work with and he gets on well with colleagues and customers alike. I am happy to recommend Xavier to any team or business seeking an experienced Senior Software Developer or Technical Lead."

Since October 2023, I've had the opportunity to work alongside him, and I've consistently been impressed by his ability to tackle complex issues that often fall between these two domains. He is highly independent and takes full ownership of his projects, ensuring they are completed efficiently and to a high standard.

During our time working together, Xavier demonstrated an in-depth understanding of backend technologies, particularly with .NET frameworks such as C# and ASP.NET Core. He consistently delivered high-quality code while following best practices and maintaining a strong focus on scalability, performance, and security. What truly sets Xavier apart, though, is his ability to approach complex problems with a calm and methodical mindset. Whether it was debugging a critical production issue or optimizing an existing system, he approached each challenge with both technical expertise and creativity, resulting in reliable, efficient, and maintainable solutions. In addition to his technical skills, Xavier is a great team player. He has a collaborative spirit, always willing to help his peers troubleshoot issues and share knowledge.

"We hired Xavier as a developer for ecoclassroom.org, a product from a Youth Innovation Fund from the World Bank. Xavi was extremely professional, timely, problem solving and patient with our constant changes. He adapted the CMS to what we needed. When he realized that the CMS would not fully support us as we would in the future, he re-did the site using Joomla without us even asking, and not charging any more for his time. This shows an integrity and dedication to his work not so easily found on web contractors. I fully recommend Xavier as a web developer."
