    About

    I'm Ivan,
    a Product Builder.

    I'm Ivan, a product builder with 5 years of experience across start-ups, scale-ups and large groups as a consultant, and 2 years co-founding a SaaS dedicated to noise pollution. I build with AI, while always keeping the human at the center.

    Where I come from

    I started in agri-food business, passionate about food and where it came from, and working in hospitality. In 2017, I win my first team innovation competition, since then curiosity led me to explore various topics, environments, and organizations, always with the same drive: build meaningful, lasting products.

    Lately, I worked two years co-founding Sonor, a 0 to 1 open data SaaS for urban noise mapping, backed by Matrice and La Banque des Territoires, which taught me how to read a field, build with very little, and ship something cities actually used. Every role since has been a different angle on the same craft.

    What I'm building

    A handful of live builds, in hospitality operations, civic life, evaluation, music, and industrial knowledge. I work in public, with the source open whenever I can.

    Principles

    What I build with

    Real business value

    Every product I ship has to move a number that matters: operational cost down, capacity freed, decisions sharpened. If it doesn't, it's a demo.

    Human interactions first

    Technology should give time back to people, not pull them deeper into screens. The best automation is the one that lets a host be more present.

    Full-stack 0 to 1 craft

    From insight to shipped product, bridging digital interfaces with physical operations, so the experience holds together end to end.

    Method

    How I work

    A loop, not a waterfall. Four moves I keep returning to, on every project.

    01

    Problem analysis

    I start by understanding context, problem and architecture before writing a line. Field-level fluency before design.

    02

    Build

    I pick the lightest stack and methodology that solves the job, then iterate fast on real usage, not demos.

    03

    Continuous discovery

    I keep challenging the vision and roadmap by reading the market, the competition, and the weak signals.

    04

    Documenting

    I keep a single source of truth, so context, decisions, and learnings stay accessible to everyone who follows.

    Let's talk

    Ready to build the future?

    Hiring leads, design partners, fellow builders, all welcome. Pick the door that suits you.

    Thank you for your time.

    In a crowded field, sustained attention is the rarest courtesy. I hope this work offered both enlightenment and quiet clarity.
