I had the privilege of working with Nicolas when he joined our group as team lead. It didn't take long for Nico to create a foundation of trust and collaboration, or to provide motivation and support for our efforts that was truly invaluable. His deep insight into the nature of remote, distributed and async work, his sincere empathy for people, and his broad technical knowledge based on hands-on experience make him uniquely suited to help any organization thrive in the new reality of hybrid and remote workplaces. In conversations, Nico was not only transparent in sharing his thoughts and insights, but also engaged in listening and gaining new insight from the experience of others. I'd welcome the chance to work together again; he deserves a place on my short-list of people I'd want on my ideal startup team. I highly recommend Nicolas to any organization seeking exemplary technical leadership and experience to help them succeed.
