Check me out on GitHub at jordanmontt. The code speaks for itself.

I’m a software engineer currently working on a PhD at INRIA - Lille (National Institute for Research in Science and Technology, France). My expertise spans language runtime analysis, memory profiling, code instrumentation, and high-level software design using object-oriented principles. I develop tools that enable developers to understand and optimize application performance. I've designed memory profilers, implemented instrumentation libraries for custom code execution monitoring, and created algorithms for automatic memory optimization and code rewriting. I’ve been involved in open-source projects since 2020 and I have been working as a professional software developer since 2017.

Since 2017 I have worked on contributing to large codebases in collaborative team environments, I've worked across both legacy systems and new code, submitting and reviewing pull requests, and maintaining production systems. I'm a regular contributor to the Pharo programming language. I have mentored Google Summer of Code students since 2021, focusing on data structures and algorithms. Beyond mentoring individual contributors, I teach advanced object-oriented design and software architecture to Master students.

Beyond programming languages, I love for human languages. Feel free to reach out to me in:
Spanish, French, English, or Italian (still learning!)
