Summary
Gabriel Paquin is a seasoned technology leader and CTO with 11+ years of experience building high-performing engineering teams and delivering complex, production-grade systems across IoT, e-learning, and enterprise sales platforms. He has led end-to-end product development from prototype to commercial deployment at E-SMART, overhauled a global sales system used by 2,000 staff at EIC, and built remote development operations across Asia that generated tangible revenue. Comfortable at the intersection of people, processes and technology, he brings DevOps, microservices and cloud-first architectures to legacy-modernization efforts while recruiting and mentoring engineers, QA and designers. His e-learning platform at New Pathway became a strategic asset in an acquisition, illustrating his knack for turning engineering projects into business value. Active in community building—organizing Techyizu events in Shanghai and co-founding one of the city’s largest running groups—he combines technical leadership with grassroots community impact. Based in Montreal with a background in electrical engineering and multi-country delivery, he’s as fluent in product strategy as he is in hands-on delivery.
