Paris, Ile-de-France
Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolEdward Schults is a Paris-based technology leader and CTO with 11 years of experience evolving from Ruby on Rails developer and teacher to VP Engineering and now chief technology officer at Le Wagon. He blends hands-on full-stack engineering with DevOps sensibilities—evidenced by contributions to Le Wagon’s popular rails-templates and data-setup repos where he modernized front-end tooling and fixed CI/build pipelines. A founder of two startups and former consultant, he pairs entrepreneurial instinct with structured delivery and mentoring across bootcamp cohorts. His background in finance and audit (Master 2 Recherche Monnaie Banque Finance and early PwC experience) gives him a pragmatic, metrics-minded approach to product and engineering decisions. Comfortable shipping code, refining developer experience, and scaling teams, he’s as likely to refactor a dependency as to define hiring strategy. He brings a practical mix of teaching, product-building, and infrastructure stewardship that accelerates developer productivity.
