Benoit Dion

“I had the pleasure of working with Benoit on a number of high-profile projects at Vertigo. He is an extremely smart Software Engineer and any company he is at is lucky to have him on board. Benoit is a fun developer to be around and has a solid work ethic. He is fast at learning new technologies and applying them in very practical situations. I highly recommend Benoit and would love to work with him again someday.”

“Benoit is an exceptionally talented developer. His technical depth in the Microsoft Stack is quite staggering, he stands up, and in some cases, towers above more seasoned developers, and I would often ask him those niggling questions and how to scenarios. He is also extremely approachable and friendly - I would love to have Benoit on my team.”

“Benoit is highly motivated to succeed and can take on the work of multiple developers. He takes pride in his work and puts forth whatever effort is required to produce a high quality application. From a designer's perspective, I feel confident in Benoit to deliver a product that not only matches the design with great attention to detail, but which includes added nuances on transitions, timing and other enhancements. On one project, early in the design phase, Benoit delivered working prototypes to test the design almost as fast as we could envision them. In addition to being a very talented and industrious developer, he is a delightful person and a pleasure to work for. Any company should be glad to employ him, and consider him a great asset.”

“Benoit is someone I would always want on my team. I have not encountered someone, who this early in their carrier, has a deep understanding of the OOP fundamentals, patterns, .NET concepts that sometimes elude even seasoned professionals. Benoit is apt conversationalist even if the English is not his first language. Lately we were discussing the covariance/contravariance and its implementation in .NET; Solving a problem with generics in Silverlight which led to him writing T4 templates to automate repository pattern; talking about encapsulation problems, SRP and other gotchas when developing a solid solution. He learns rapidly because of his solid understanding of software development fundamentals and applies this knowledge correctly. Very impressive young man.”

“Benoît is an excellent .NET programmer and fun to work with. His deep knowledge of the technology enables rapid application development. His design skills are a great match for any Enterprise Architecture. He is an asset to any team.”

“Benoit was a key player on a recent project we implemented for Hard Rock international. Benoit is one of the fastest most adaptive learners I have worked with in my 10+ years in the software industry. He is technically gifted and is able to translate those skills as a consultant. Benoit has a very bright future ahead of him.”

“Despite the fact that Benoit is a superb engineer, his technical acumen takes second place in my recommendation. First and foremost, Benoit is a pleasure to work with. He's easy going, takes on heavy tasks with a smile, and clearly loves what he does. Benoit is one of those people who has the ability to immediately and intuitively understand complex problems and then visualize potential solutions. His implementation of the solutions he formulates are clean, efficient and well thought out. I learn something new every time I work with him.”
