About Maël

Passionate backend developer and entrepreneur with over 5 years of experience in blockchain and backend architectures, I assist my clients in designing and implementing robust, high-performance, and scalable digital solutions.

My background is hybrid, at the crossroads of corporate and innovation:
• At Generali (Cologne), I worked on IT & Cyber Risk analysis. This experience gave me solid rigor in data analysis and risk management.
• As co-founder and CEO of Winible, I led the development of a B2B SaaS platform for the wine & spirits sector, integrating digital management tools (inventory, sales, e-commerce) and innovative traceability solutions via blockchain.
• I then contributed to open-source within the Starknet ecosystem, particularly on an RWA (Real World Assets) protocol.
• Today, I am co-founder and CTO of Dig, where I manage the multi-chain backend infrastructure of a data-intensive application. I manage an architecture based on Node.js, microservices, MongoDB, TimescaleDB, Redis, and RabbitMQ, with a focus on scalability, reliability, and real-time performance.

👉 What I bring you:
• Comprehensive expertise in backend development and data engineering.
• Design and optimization of scalable microservices architectures.
• Mastery of SQL & NoSQL databases and real-time data pipelines.
• DevOps skills: deployment, monitoring, CI/CD, and cloud optimization.
• A product and business vision stemming from my entrepreneurial experience.

I can be involved in:
• Backend API development and distributed services implementation.
• Creation or improvement of SaaS platforms and data-intensive applications.
• Audit and optimization of existing systems (performance, security, reliability).
• And, additionally, on Web3 projects, thanks to solid experience in smart contracts and on-chain analysis.

    Dig aims to simplify and enhance the trader experience by offering a clear and structured view in a market where thousands of tokens appear daily.

    • On-chain data accessible block by block: price, volume, liquidity movements, contract events, post-TGE distribution, etc.
    • Thematic modules covering complete token analysis: liquidity structure, investor behavior, suspicious transactions, real-time events, contract security, etc.
    • Tools designed to help traders quickly assess project fundamentals and risks.

    As CTO, I am responsible for:
    • The multi-chain technical architecture (Ethereum, Sonic, Base, etc.).
    • The development of our data infrastructure (MongoDB, TimescaleDB, Redis, RabbitMQ).
    • The implementation of a robust and scalable microservices architecture.
    • Performance monitoring, cost optimization, and platform reliability.
