Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJérémie Drouet is a Staff Rust Engineer with 11 years of experience building high-performance, privacy-focused and observability systems from desktop apps to distributed backends. Based in Greater Paris, he has led architecture and delivery improvements at Finary and Datadog, driving hexagonal refactors, CI/CD, observability, and RFC-driven decision making. He previously built a fully encrypted, client-side distributed search engine in Rust at Proton and contributed backend parsing, streaming and integration work to the widely used vectordotdev/vector observability pipeline. His background spans Docker Desktop UI backends (Go, Swift, C#), frontend work in React, and DevOps automation, giving him rare fluency across systems, UI and platform tooling. Curious and opinionated about architecture, he pairs pragmatic engineering with strong craftsmanship and a knack for simplifying complex deployment and build workflows. He’s also known to "transform bread into lines of code," reflecting a pragmatic, playful hacker mindset that surfaces in open-source contributions.
