Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMatthieu Gouel is a systems engineer with nine years of experience blending network engineering, automation, and large-scale measurement research, currently enhancing observability and resilience on Cloudflare’s Network Development team. He brings a rare mix of hands-on production systems work—maintaining device monitoring and RPKI/BGP/BMP pipelines—and deep research experience from a PhD focused on internet-wide measurements and topology analysis. His background spans military and financial infrastructure projects where he built network automation in Python, Go, Docker and Kubernetes, and led a private-cloud networking API effort that produced an open-source testing tool. Comfortable moving between research and operational environments, he has repeatedly turned measurement-driven insights into reliable automation for network operators. Based in Annecy, France, he combines academic rigor with pragmatic engineering, including a stint researching ethical internet measurement approaches at the Naval Postgraduate School.
