Wassim Drira is a cloud-native solution architect with nine years of experience designing data platforms and migrating large-scale systems to AWS, currently shaping Enedis’s move from on-premise Teradata to cloud solutions. He combines a PhD-level research background with hands-on leadership as a former CTO who led Opencell’s SaaS transformation, delivering dramatic performance gains (APIs/batch up to 1000x) and operational improvements like monthly releases and 70% test coverage. Comfortable across data engineering, DevOps and FinOps, he has built high-throughput pre-mediation systems with Spark and Cassandra and driven iPaaS and vertical separation strategies that cut integration and migration costs by large margins. Earlier work as a research scientist produced spatial extensions for Cassandra and real-time traffic analytics, demonstrating a long-standing focus on scalable data architectures. Known for turning complex technical debt into product advantages, he blends academic rigor with pragmatic product delivery and has a track record of raising funding and launching revenue-driving features. Based in Île-de-France, he brings a rare mix of research depth, cloud migration expertise, and SaaS operational experience.
