Alexis Le-Quoc is the chief technology officer of Datadog, a cloud monitoring company he founded in 2010 with Olivier Pomel, the firm's CEO.
Datadog listed on the Nasdaq in 2019, raising nearly $650 million and nabbing a $10.9 billion market cap on its first day of trading.
Le-Quoc and Pomel became billionaires in 2020; Le-Quoc owns some 3% of Datadog shares.
The French natives met while undergraduates at Ecole Centrale Paris, where both received a master's in computer science.
Before launching Datadog, the duo worked together at New York-based firm Wireless Generation, which was acquired by News Corp in 2010.
