Léonard Marques is a Senior Software Engineer based in Paris with 11 years of hands-on experience building distributed systems and data-intensive backends, primarily using Typelevel Scala and functional programming principles. He has driven significant refactors and feature work across fintech and marketing platforms—adding OpenTelemetry, optimizing queries with ClickHouse, and modernizing CQRS layers—while shipping on Kubernetes and cloud-native CI/CD pipelines. Comfortable breaking down complex systems, he gravitates toward performance-sensitive problems (RocksDB dictionaries, query optimization) and enjoys pushing boundaries through PoCs and cross-team hacks. A lifelong learner and keyboard enthusiast, he pairs rigorous engineering with diverse interests—music, physics and rock climbing—that often inspire creative problem solving. He is currently at Hawk and not actively looking for new roles.
