Baptiste Girardeau is a software engineer and Rust enthusiast with nine years of hands-on experience building scalable systems and devtools, now based in San Francisco. He has shipped production features at early-stage fintech Piana—implementing payment control policies, transaction enrichment, and fine-grained access control—and contributed to core backend and API integrations. As solo author of RaidProtect, he scaled one of France’s largest Discord bots to over 250,000 active users and open-sourced the project. He also contributes to twilight-rs, enhancing Discord API support, serialization accuracy, and command validation in a widely used Rust ecosystem. Currently pursuing graduate-level CS studies through an exchange at San Francisco State after training at EPITECH, he blends academic rigor with startup velocity. Known for practical systems thinking, he tends to focus on robustness and developer experience in distributed services and tooling.
