Senior Staff Engineer, Ledger
Raphaël is a seasoned software engineer with a passion for simplifying complex problems. With about 25 years of experience in JVM languages, including Scala and Java, Raphaël has developed a keen interest in optimizing backend development processes. As the creator of Pillars, a powerful Scala library that streamlines the journey from code to production, he is dedicated to making Scala more accessible and efficient for developers of all levels.
Raphaël has spoken at numerous conferences and enjoys sharing his insights with the community, whether through talks, workshops, or open-source contributions. When he's not coding, you can find him on the golf course, tackling a new board game, or exploring the latest escape room challenge. With a passion for continuous learning and a knack for making complex concepts approachable, Raphaël is committed to empowering developers to build better software, faster.
I will demonstrate how Pillars can take you from zero to production in record time. By leveraging Pillars’ integration of well-known libraries, you can bypass the usual complexities of setting up observability (traces, metrics, and logs), database access, API calls, and feature flag management.
