Summary
Thomas Blanchet is a quantitative technologist and data-focused software engineer with 11 years of experience blending applied economics, machine learning, and production engineering. With a PhD in economics and an ENSAE masters in ML, he has built large-scale data infrastructures—from managing the World Inequality Database with millions of observations to deploying near-real-time financial health pipelines for a $30M portfolio. He ships end-to-end solutions across the stack, including Bayesian models, R packages and TypeScript/React dashboards, and has collaborated with institutions like INSEE, OECD and the UN to standardize data methodologies. Now at Qube Research & Technologies, he applies rigorous research-grade practices to quantitative engineering problems, bringing an unusually strong mix of academic rigor and production-ready software craftsmanship.
