Francois Pesce is a seasoned software engineer with 12+ years focused on network and web application security, specializing in algorithmic, real-time, and multi-threaded systems. He has held senior technical and security leadership roles at major companies including Google, Netflix, Yahoo, and Aviatrix, blending hands-on C/Java/Python development with strategic security architecture and CISO responsibilities. His work emphasizes string and pattern-matching algorithms, password security, and automation of penetration and defense workflows, often leveraging NoSQL stores or bespoke log-management engines. Equally comfortable implementing low-level optimizations and exploring AI techniques like neural networks and genetic algorithms, he has a practical fondness for heavy regular-expression use across languages. Based in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France, he pairs deep technical craft with a history of product-facing roles in both startups and large enterprises.
