Scouting report

Consistent, AWS-leaning full-stack — bootcamp-forged, open to work

assessed from open-source footprint

Staff
74signal

Xavier is a steady, well-rounded engineer spanning Python, JavaScript, Shell and Docker, with 92 commits and 31 merged PRs in the last year and very low abandonment (13%). Be candid about the portfolio: much of it is Holberton coursework and his standout external work is 43 commits to a 1★ peer project, so the public star count is near zero. The signal here is discipline and breadth, not flagship impact — a reliable mid-level hire who keeps things shipping.
