Titouan Benoit is a hands-on technology leader and co-founder with 11+ years building web and embedded systems, most recently serving as CTO and CoFounder at Dotfile and running MoltenCore as CEO/CTO. He combines deep full‑stack expertise (PHP/Symfony, ApiPlatform, JS frameworks) with DevOps and cloud-native experience (Docker, Kubernetes, AWS/GCP, Terraform), enabling him to design robust architectures and CI/CD pipelines for startups and scaleups. A pragmatic project manager and CTO in residence at eFounders and Kamet, he consistently moves products from POC to MVP while mentoring teams and advising on technical strategy. An active open-source maintainer, his Mailjet/Mailchimp bundles have tens of thousands of downloads and he’s contributed backend fixes and features to api-platform/core, reflecting both product and platform sensibilities. Based in France with an engineering background from Centrale Lille, he’s equally comfortable prototyping embedded IoT projects and leading production cloud systems—an engineer who still enjoys pushing technical boundaries and climbing mountains in his spare time.
