Valentin THIRION

I am Graduated in Computer Science from The University of Liege with a management expertise at HEC-ULg.
Despite my young age, I already got some great experiences in which I had to work intensively to finally reach valuable results.
Scouting, student councils and The AppLab learned me lots of values that I think are useful in this society. For me, working in teams, taking responsibilities and leading a project is very important.
During my first year of Master in Computer Science at the ULg, I created with classmates (group that became The AppLab) a mobile App (iOS & Android) for the University that helped me learn how to lead projects and teams. After that we worked with the "Francofolies de Spa" (here) to create the 2013 version of their app (see below in projects). Recently, with The AppLab we created LetsGO, a full platform for Smart Cities in collaboration with Labexhe.
I've always loved being completely engaged in the projects I participate with. I like reaching results and give the best of myself. Of course, physical work doesn't affraid me.

In computing

• From August 2014 to now, Odoo (ERP) expert at AbAKUS it-solutions in Heinerscheid (Luxembourg).

  This position consists of implementing Odoo for ourselves and for our customers. Our implementation is related to every process of the company and is used by +/- 45 people daily.

  My job is oriented all around the process, from the first meetings with the customers to the final delivery. I'm responsible of understanding the customer needs, converting it to a project plan and developing the modules that are needed for customizing Odoo.
