Hello. I’m Frederic.

My name is Frederic Thevenet and I live in Paris, France. I write—and mostly read—computer code for a living, and I've been doing that in one way or another for over two and a half decades now.

I work at IBM, where I’m part of the team that contributes to OpenJDK, the leading free and open-source implementation of the Java programming language and virtual machine. Prior to that, I did the same thing at Red Hat. And before that, I worked at Dassault Systèmes on a proprietary search engine and at EMC² (now Dell Technologies) on automated content recognition and classification.

I’m also the author of binjr, a cross platform, free and open source time series browser written in Java, and I've made contributions to many free software projects, large and small, mostly within the Java/JVM ecosystem.

This page, my source code repositories on GitHub and Codeberg, and my account on the Fediverse pretty much sum up my entire presence on the Internet—if you find something else lying around out there with my name on it (Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter/X, etc…), it probably belongs to someone else. Please return it to its rightful owner.

Cheers!
