Lionel Molinier is a technology leader and CEO with 11 years of hands-on experience building embedded and cloud systems for high-performance telecommunications. He progressed from embedded software engineer to founding and scaling multiple teams at Sigfox—designing base station OSes, software factories, and leading core network, monitoring and validation departments of up to 25 people. His background blends a PhD in Computer Systems Networking with pragmatic DevOps and validation discipline, enabling reliable deployments across constrained IoT infrastructure. Comfortable from kernel-level C on GNU/Linux to cloud orchestration, he is particularly skilled at turning blank-sheet system designs into production-ready platforms and repeatable delivery pipelines. Based in Toulouse, he brings both deep research grounding and proven operational leadership to startups and telecom operators.
