Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRené Clerc is a results-oriented technology and product leader with 23 years’ experience bringing multidisciplinary teams together to deliver commercial solutions that reduce food waste, most notably the Avocado Scanner at OneThird. He combines C-level stakeholder fluency with hands-on engineering empathy—“converses at C-level just as easily as at C#-level”—and a T-shaped skill set spanning product, implementations and customer success. René has repeatedly led complex integrations in retail and identity verification, guiding teams through transformation, ISO27001-level quality improvements and large-scale deployments. He prefers small to medium teams where he can coach, learn by doing and draw out individual strengths while keeping delivery velocity high. Socially engaged and communicative, he balances operational rigor with a knack for timely puns and informal culture (advocate of Formal Friday). Driven by socially relevant innovation, he seeks to scale practical tech that measurably reduces waste and improves retail outcomes.
