Vincent Combey

Based in Paris, I'm a senior software engineer, passionnate about entrepreneurship and technology. I'm specialized in creating simple solutions to solve complex technical problemes and I've more than 5 years of experience in the development of SaaS products.

I've learned Rust by doing, for almost a year, the most difficult project of school 42: the development from scratch of a full featured operating system kernel, able to run on an actual computer. This experience gave me deep knowledge of the language, the x86 system, software algorithmics and complex problem solving, involving multithreading.

Afterwards, as the CTO and co-founder of Spoke, from 2020 to 2024, I've developed with my associates an AI assistant that helps your sales and coworkers by automating the generation of meeting reports and supply of CRM. Durign this adventure, I've been managing a team (5 developers) and got conformtable with architecturing, developing and maintaining a complex and resilient web service, that necessitates a lot of server-side computing capabilities (CPU, realtime video processing).

I've worked with my team on a variety of technologies; Rust for the backend, Reac (with chakra-ui), PostgreSQL, ElasticSearch, RabbitMQ, Redis and S3.

I am also the creator and maintainer of "fallible_collection," a open-source Rust library to handle OOM in rust standard collections that has been downloaded over 1.2 million times and is utilized by Firefox (

Motivated, passionate, I look forward to putting my expertise at the service of your projects/teams.
