Hello
I’m Yann Labour, a CTO and full-stack engineer with over 17 years of experience building and scaling web applications. I lead technology at CapStellar, a VASP operating in the digital assets space, where I oversee platform architecture, engineering strategy, and security.
My work blends system design, software engineering, and cloud-driven automation. I focus on building resilient platforms, improving development workflows, and aligning technology with business outcomes. Throughout my career, I’ve collaborated with cross-functional teams to deliver scalable, maintainable solutions across multiple industries.
I’m also an active member of the Laravel Mauritius community and occasionally give technical talks.
What I work with
Backend: PHP (Laravel ecosystem), Python (FastAPI), Node.js Frontend: Vue.js, JavaScript/TypeScript, TailwindCSS Data: MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, SQL Server Cloud & DevOps: Azure (App Service, Container Apps, Functions, DevOps), AWS, Docker, CI/CD Systems: Linux administration, Nginx, HAProxy, container orchestration
Beyond code
When I’m not building software, I enjoy cooking (Mediterranean and Asian cuisines), reading science fiction (Asimov, Philip K. Dick, Brandon Sanderson), and tinkering with home automation projects.
I’m based in Mauritius.
