What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, encourages collaboration, and offers opportunities for strategic leadership in technology.

I am an executive leader with over 19 years of global experience in technology, FinTech, blockchain, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence. As the CTO and Director General at IZNES, I successfully led the platform's growth to €28 billion in assets under administration. My role involved directing multiple Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) experiments with the Central Bank of France and the European Central Bank, showcasing my expertise in regulatory compliance and infrastructure modernization.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a strong ability to build and lead high-performance global teams. I integrated advanced AI systems, including large language models and natural language processing, into core business use cases, ensuring our platform was modernized for scale and compliance. My leadership has been pivotal in aligning technology architecture with regulatory standards such as MiFID II and GDPR, while also fostering partnerships and strategic fundraising initiatives that raised $75 million across various funding rounds.
