Hugo Guitton
Full-stack Rails Developer
I'm a freelance Rails developer based in France with nearly a decade of experience shipping web applications end-to-end, from backend to interface. I lean on Rails conventions and Hotwire (Turbo + Stimulus) to build reactive, polished interfaces. Increasingly I bring applied AI into that work — assisted workflows to ship faster, and LLM features held to the same test discipline as the rest.
01 What I work with
Toolkit02 Where I've worked
Rails Freelance Developer — Independent
Working with startups and product teams — sports, booking, marketing, hospitality — to build, evolve, and rescue Rails applications, from a fast MVP to a drifting project that needs steadying.
Full-stack Rails Developer — Phiture
B.Layer: a no-code mobile experience design tool that lets CRM and lifecycle teams create advanced in-app messages without developer support.
- Drag-and-drop editor and component system that non-technical teams rely on to assemble multi-screen campaigns.
- Front-end with Hotwire + ViewComponent + Tailwind, favoring server-rendered pages.
Junior Rails Developer — Luvotels
First role. Learning the Rails fundamentals—conventions, the safety of a solid test suite—on reservation systems where availability, timing, and concurrency actually mattered.
- Reservation systems handling complex slots and timezones.
- Stripe integration: treating money paths as code that has to be right, proven by tests.
