Frédéric Fortier is a software engineer with 12 years of experience designing and building distributed systems for traditional finance and the blockchain space. A longtime independent algorithmic trader, he has live-traded profitable strategies across stocks, options, futures and crypto—developing particular expertise in small-cap biotechs. Early involvement in Ethereum in 2015 led him to pivot full-time to blockchain work in 2017 at Enigma, where he helped build Catalyst, an algorithmic trading platform for crypto-assets, and played a central role in developing Enigma’s privacy protocol. He brings deep technical knowledge of blockchain protocols and exchange integrations, and is an active open-source contributor to Catalyst’s backend exchange and live-trading features. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, he blends production-grade engineering with practical quant trading experience, uniquely bridging protocol design and hands-on market execution.
