David: I began my career in France as a Full Stack developer, working for multiple companies. It was during this time that I received an exciting opportunity from Wematch to join their team as a Full Stack developer in Tel Aviv. A few months down the line, I was promoted to the position of Tech Lead for the EQD platform. Just a year later, I received another promotion, this time as the Tech Lead for the Wematch Securities Financing (WSF) US platform and was relocated to New York.
