Senior🎓
Top SchoolJean-francois Smigielski is a seasoned software engineer with 14 years of experience building cloud storage, distributed systems and load‑balanced architectures, currently focused on block and object storage integration. As founder and CTO of OpenIO he led product, fundraising and an eventual acquisition while managing an open‑source core tailored to Big Data and AI workloads. His background at Worldline/Atos spans design and operation of petabyte-scale PaaS/SaaS storage, streaming platforms and industrialized cloud services. Known for hands‑on technical leadership, he bridges low-level system engineering with business-facing tasks like RFPs, tax-incentive filings and customer L3 support. Based in Lille, he pairs a Masters in Computer Science with deep operational experience integrating open‑source storage into large cloud providers. An unstated strength is his comfort switching between gritty legacy code maintenance and strategic product development.
