Who I Am

I'm Mathieu Ponton, a Software Engineer working as an apprentice full stack developer at Superwyze, and since July 2025, I'm also the CTO at Apogée Consult . I design and build full-stack, data-driven web applications, taking care of everything from database models and backend APIs to modern, accessible user interfaces.

With a background in Computer Science engineering from Polytech Lyon, I enjoy working on products where reliability, performance and user experience all matter: SaaS platforms, real-time dashboards and systems integrating IoT or external data sources.
