Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPaul De Schacht is a founder and senior backend architect with 14 years of experience building and leading Big Data and analytics platforms, most recently founding CodeComprehension to help teams tame legacy systems and redesign data pipelines. He combines hands-on engineering—Spark SQL, data modelling, secure REST APIs and GDPR-aware architectures—with strategic product thinking developed during an MBA in knowledge management and innovation. At Amadeus he translated business needs into enterprise data strategy and led multi-region teams to deliver real-time and analytical platforms that drove operational insight for major airlines. An advocate of functional programming and pragmatic collaboration, he excels at bridging technical teams and board-level stakeholders to produce clearer strategic IT plans. Based in Provence, he brings an entrepreneurial streak (co-founding a telemedicine startup earlier in his career) and a knack for making complex technical landscapes understandable and actionable.
