Senior🎓
Top SchoolKarim Chenaï is a seasoned technology leader and security officer with 15 years of experience building and operating SaaS platforms, leading engineering teams, and steering security programs from Paris. He has held hands-on CTO and founding roles—scaling products from early-stage builds to multi-million euro funded ventures—while also formalizing enterprise security as RSSI, authoring PSSI and driving RGS homologation. Comfortable both hands-on and strategic, he modernizes infrastructure (Kubernetes, AWS, CI/CD), introduces DevOps and observability, and recruits and mentors cross-border teams. Karim combines product sensibility with operational rigor—he’s shipped platforms for proptech, real estate marketplaces and UGC curation that balanced performance, compliance and profitability. Notably, he moves between roles as a pragmatic builder (platform architecture, APIs, simulators) and a C-suite strategist aligning business, product and technical roadmaps. Fluent in French enterprise contexts, he brings a rare mix of startup growth experience and formal security governance.
