Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolNicolas Seriot is a senior security-focused platforms engineer with 17 years of experience turning mobile and platform ideas into production-grade systems and teams. Currently leading security initiatives at Swissquote, he has previously scaled engineering organizations—building Yuh from launch to 170k+ customers—and led platform-wide projects such as a full replacement of client authentication. He blends hands-on engineering (notably extensive iOS and Objective‑C open-source work like iOS-Runtime-Headers and tooling to analyze Obj‑C dependencies) with people leadership and process design. An educator and researcher by background, he brings rigor from academic teaching and investigations in economic crime to pragmatic security and testing practices. Equally at home improving test automation and debugging low-level platform internals, he is a habitual open-source maintainer and occasional security speaker. Outside work he’s an ultra-trail runner and nature lover, a detail that underscores his endurance-driven leadership style.
