Paolo Ardoino joined Bitfinex at the beginning of 2015 and now serves as Chief Technology Officer.
Ardoino seemed destined to fill this role from his earliest interaction with computers, quickly becoming obsessed with hardware, networks, and cryptography. After his graduation from Genoa’s Computer Science University in 2008, he started working as a researcher for a military project focused on high-availability, self-recovering networks, and cryptography. Throughout this role, Ardoino refined his knowledge of distributed systems and experimented extensively with cryptography.
Throughout the following years, Ardoino acquired a strong portfolio of different programming languages and developed a genuine passion for distributed systems, high-performance computing, and cloud platforms.
Interested in finance, Ardoino began developing financial related applications in 2010 and founded Fincluster as CTO in late 2013. Backed by two financing investment rounds, Fincluster delivered an advanced, modern and accessible web platform serving different clients with customization capabilities. Fincluster developed a comprehensive, cloud-based financial application for advisors, fund managers & institutions, and served numerous small and medium-sized companies throughout London, Milan, and Lugano.
Ardoino eventually joined Bitfinex as Senior Software Developer in 2014, tasked with trading engine development, platform scalability, and high-availability. Later in 2016, Ardoino transitioned to the role of CTO.
As CTO of Bitfinex, Ardoino’s role is to manage the development team, evaluate new technologies, design and develop the Bitfinex backend platform. In addition to this, Ardoino also serves as Lead Backend Developer at Bitfinex and the CTO for Tether.
