Summary

Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolRomain M is a Senior Systems Engineer based in the UK with 10 years of experience building high-performance, reliable systems across finance, aerospace and government projects. He combines strong software engineering and systems expertise—from low-level embedded testing and DO-178B certification work to operating latency-sensitive trading infrastructure at Hudson River Trading—with a master’s in computer science and networking. Romain has led platform teams and SRE efforts at J.P. Morgan and Smarkets, automating provisioning, scaling multi-region services, and revamping monitoring and logging pipelines that handled hundreds of gigabytes per day. He is pragmatic about shipping: automating manual test benches that cut validation time from days to minutes and contributing clear, user-focused documentation to open-source projects like sqlitedict. Comfortable working autonomously or leading small technical teams, he excels at turning complex, high-SLA requirements into operational, scalable solutions. Colleagues know him as an engineer who truly loves to build things—and to make them dependable in production.
