Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolKhaled Souf is a pragmatic technology leader and Co-founder & CTO with 17 years of international experience helping fintechs and regulated organizations ship secure, scalable software faster. He works as a fractional CTO and technical advisor, embedding with seed-to-Series A teams to drive architecture decisions, CI/CD, IaC and engineering culture—delivering measurable outcomes like 40% faster delivery cycles and 35% cloud cost reduction. Deeply experienced in DDD, Event Storming and DevOps, he pairs hands-on refactoring and testing practices with regulatory know-how (ACPR, FINMA, KYC) that few engineering leaders combine. His background spans banks, energy infrastructure and startups across France, Switzerland, Canada, UAE and Tunisia, and he’s mentored 100+ developers while co-organizing Software Crafters Romandie. Notably, he treats fractional engagements as temporary CTO ownership—implementing hiring, metrics and governance rather than offering only advisory slides. Based in Annecy, he blends craft-focused XP practices with practical engineering economics to de-risk scaling for regulated fintechs.
