Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRomain Billot is an open-source developer with a decade of hands-on experience building full-stack web projects and contributing to community-driven codebases. Based in Lyon, he has led engineering teams at startups and maintained production systems while also contributing backend Lua fixes to notable gaming framework repos like esx-core. Currently supported by a Kaspa Ecosystem Foundation research grant, he focuses on network resiliency, developer tooling, protocol readiness and groundwork for future zero-knowledge enhancements on a Layer-1 blockchain. Known for a curious, collaborative mindset—“like to share and receive knowledge”—he pairs pragmatic engineering with a research-oriented approach to scalability and robustness. His background in computer science and mathematics underpins a habit of digging into low-level behavior under stress, an area few full-stack leads routinely tackle. Colleagues describe him as modest but persistent, driven more by curiosity and community impact than by titles.
