Thomas Gaugain
Software Developer

Software developer, student at 42. I like starting with the product question and staying through the awkward edge cases. The research that decides what we build, the architecture that makes it possible, the conversations that fund it: they're the same job to me, and doing one badly ruins the other two.
That's how I've worked so far: several startup competitions and hackathons (Colosseum among them), a demo day.
Interested in AI, privacy, cryptography.
