I build the systems that quote, route and settle trades across eight chains, and the infrastructure that keeps them fast and safe.

Who I am

I'm a software engineer based in Montpellier, working remotely. I lead SODAX, a multi-chain solver and market-making operation: the quoting engines, the routing algorithms, the signing infrastructure and the servers they run on.

The problems I like sit where the math meets the ops: optimal routing through on-chain liquidity, latency budgets measured in milliseconds, and keys that must never leave RAM. Before SODAX, [ONE LINE ON YOUR EARLIER CAREER: where you were and what you shipped].

Off the clock: tribal and choral music, films with a good twist, and long reads on genomics, geoengineering and market microstructure.

Where I've been

SODAX · via Jump Green (CAE)

Lead engineer, solver & market making

[2023] — present

A multi-chain solver and market-making operation. I own the quoting engines, the routing and the signing infrastructure, and the servers they run on, across Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, BSC, NEAR, Solana, Sonic and Stellar. Permanent contract, remote.

Built the cross-chain solver stack from v2 to v3: quoting API, the prime routing algorithm, multi-region deployment on Hetzner and AWS.
Designed the signing-key isolation architecture: in-RAM separation and a two-server solver/signer split.
Market-making models for stablecoin corridors (Avellaneda–Stoikov) and NEAR Intents solving.
Run the fleet: 25+ services, RPC rotation across 15+ chains, hardened SSH, observability.
