About

Hi! I’m Hadrien Develay, an Aerospace Engineering graduate from the University of Southampton with a passion for integrating computer science with spacecraft engineering. My academic projects included designing a passive magnetic axial thrust bearing and an unmanned vehicle, forming a solid foundation in engineering and space exploration.

Professionally, I started as a Web Software Engineer at Luminance, where I led the overhaul of the company website and developed key front-end components. My role also involved mentoring, enhancing my skills in team collaboration and web technology.

Outside work, I'm an enthusiastic sportsman involved in skydiving, sailing, and bouldering, and a BASI Level 1 Ski Instructor. I enjoy DIY projects, 3D printing, and multimedia production. Fluent in French and English with knowledge of Spanish and Norwegian, I'm eager to apply my diverse skills in new challenges.

Skiing

I have been skiing since forever but only recently have I started to ski more seriously. One of my lifestyle goals is to be able to ski on weekends casually whenever I want.

Skydiving

I got into skydiving in University and have been hooked ever since. Jumping out of a plane is the best way to clear your mind, and one of the best feelings in the world.
