Augustin Bengolea

French-Argentinian, born in Argentina in 1992. Moved to France at 10, grew up in Grenoble.

After high school, I started a Civil Engineering degree. That's where I discovered computer science and decided to make it my career. I then switched and obtained a degree in Computer Science.

After my degree, a year of travel (Argentina, California), then studies and work in Quebec. Back to France and resumed studies in 2018 with a Master's.

I was already using AI to help me code, but in early 2025, I started seriously thinking about integrating it into my daily workflow. Some of that reflection can be found on this site.

Client work, products and tooling, built with coding agents. I spend the time upstream: I analyze the problem, then set the architecture and the rules of the project. Then I cut the work into tasks and hand them to the agents. After that I review, I test, I adjust. The workflow changes with the task and the scope of the project.

• Engagement for an e-health startup: designed a secure provisioning platform, foundation of an interoperability project.
• Web applications from mockup to end-to-end tests: photo studio management, online store, classroom tool.
• A working method with agents: automations that enforce the project conventions, verification loops, and a project memory that survives sessions. The skills, the MCP server and the CLIs are published as open source.
• I trained developers on Claude Code and coding agents. Today they use them every day in production.

Fintech solution for highly regulated sectors, in product structuring phase.

• Profile modification traceability via validation workflow with visual categorization, accelerating triage while ensuring KYC integrity.
• Redesigned onboarding flow with contextual guidance, improving user experience while reducing support tickets.

Service interfacing with the Shared Medical Record, subject to healthcare compliance requirements.

• Built an E2E testing framework integrated into CI, combining multiple tools through an orchestration layer to speed up releases and detect regressions earlier.
• Health standard-compliant exchange flows (CDA R2, DICOM, HL7) ensuring interoperability between hospital software and the Shared Medical Record.

Park application infrastructure, managing reservations across service types and providing data access for guests.

• Designed and built the Magic Pass app's API gateway, unifying access to legacy systems spanning 30 years of Disney IT evolution. Adopted park-wide after successful hotel pilot.
• Proactively identified and resolved booking back-office bottlenecks (caching, database, frontend), improving Cast Member experience.

SaaS/IoT environmental monitoring platform, developed with high autonomy in a startup context.

• Developed key platform features: air-quality monitoring, mobile installation flow, and DataViz components.
