Résumé/CV: https://calendini.xyz/cvEmail: [email protected]
Software engineer, four years professional. École 42 Paris. Currently maintaining production banking systems on a mainframe, which is unglamorous but a good education in what tech debt actually costs.
I care about simple, correct code, and systems that are easy to reason about and hard to break. Recently, I worked on a game logic engine in TypeScript, built from scratch, pure domain core, tests as the executable spec, with a postmortem (https://github.com/leocrabe225/rentier-rewrite).
Looking for a team with a strong engineering culture and work where correctness matters.

I'm learning Rust, and a bit about audio processing: https://github.com/leocrabe225/audiodsp
Just before that I was learning TypeScript, and I'll be coming back to that project as it's quite the process.
I'm leaning heavy TDD and rely on the type systems a lot.
The project is called "Rentier", a joke about the Monopoly board game.

I finished part 1, with a postmortem.
Part 2 is React frontend.
Part 3 is implement the postmortem findings in the TS engine.
Part 4 is update the React frontend for the updated engine.
Part 5 is make the engine in Rust from scratch.
Part 6 is point the React frontend to Rust engine, and praise the pros of having a good architecture.
Kind of an ode to clean code if you will (Many things to learn along the way).
