Could you briefly introduce yourself ?

Today, we're giving the floor to Edgar Lecomte, Developer at Hubup. Discover his journey!

My name is Edgar Lecomte, I’m 20 years old and currently a student at IMM Digital School (Institut de l’Internet et du Multimédia). I’m working as a back-end developer apprentice at Hubup.

What is your background ?

After graduating from high school, I spent a year exploring different fields during a preparatory/orientation program including video games, digital creation (3D, video editing, design), and development, which is the path I ultimately chose to pursue.

As my work-study bachelor's degree wraps up this year, I’m fortunate to be continuing on to a Master’s program while staying on at Hubup as part of my apprenticeship.

How did you discover Hubup ?

I discovered Hubup while looking for an internship on LinkedIn.

What do you do on a daily basis at Hubup ?

I’m quite versatile! On one hand, I work on developing features that address client feedback, as well as handling back-end needs for the front-end developers. On the other hand, I’m involved in longer-term projects focused on building new functionalities which often require time and research.

Front or Back ?

Definitely back-end! I enjoy front-end development too and often work on it as well. Both areas complement each other, and having knowledge of both really helps improve communication across the team. It also makes me more autonomous and less dependent when it comes to handling simple tasks. But to be honest, I prefer the back end. I really enjoy working with data.

My greatest pride ? I’d say developing the VoIP (internet calling) feature and gaining a solid understanding of how that technology works. But honestly, I’m proud of all the projects I’ve had the chance to work on at Hubup, they’re amazing initiatives made possible by an outstanding team !

I've been sculpting for about ten years.
