Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJulien Chiappinelli is a Chief Cloud Engineer with 14 years of experience designing resilient, high-availability systems and leading cloud and IoT projects from prototype to production. Based in Geneva, he combines hands-on engineering—refactoring security-critical libraries like the Go Kerberos gokrb5 gssapi package—with product and project management for blockchain real-estate and decentralized exchange initiatives. His background in microengineering (EPFL) and hands-on IoT work (LoRa, NB‑IoT, embedded sensors) gives him a rare cross-domain fluency in low-power networks, edge devices and cloud analytics. Julien has shipped Delay Tolerant Network research into practical sensor networks and built end-to-end monitoring platforms with Swiss-hosted cloud storage and visualization. Colleagues know him for turning academic-grade research into robust, auditable systems that prioritize availability and data integrity.
