Most companies I've worked with chose a balanced model between state-of-the-art code and deliverability. I've experimented with DDD — notably at M6/Bedrock — but a model close to MVC remains more often the norm. Clear naming and project structure matter more than exotic patterns.

I rate myself 1/10 on specialization — I flourish by touching everything. My side-projects span from full-stack apps (Symfony + React Native) to infrastructure (AWS with Terraform). There was even a time when I went from hardware to UX on the same project.

With Claude, I no longer code directly — I take back the wheel when things go off track or to ensure code coherence. I use AI for studying ideas (planning phase), understanding concepts, then I make the architecture decisions. I've caught AI-generated injection vulnerabilities (SQL, XSS) especially in Clickhouse and Elasticsearch queries.

Since using Claude, I document edge cases even more in the code — AI tends to undo solutions found previously. My philosophy: keep things simple, minimize exotic choices, use clear naming. I rely on .md files, Notion, Makefiles, and README to ensure smooth onboarding for any new developer.
