I’m Paul Nodet, entrepreneur, co-founder and tech lead at Nivalis, and partner at Triakis and Rives Studio. I help founders and teams turn complex problems into stable products and clear decisions. I don’t build for hype; I build for relationships, trust, and solutions that last.
I believe the best businesses are built on two things: human relationships and useful execution. Strategy matters, but reality matters more. Good software is not just code, it’s a system that protects a business from chaos: unclear priorities, fragile infrastructure, and slow delivery.
I don’t chase “unicorn” narratives. I prefer durable companies, honest collaboration, and pragmatic craftsmanship. My work is about making progress visible: fewer assumptions, more clarity, and a product that works in the real world.
When I partner with entrepreneurs, my goal is to reduce uncertainty and increase momentum. That usually means:
I’m comfortable in the messy middle: the moment where a project needs structure, speed, and someone accountable for turning ideas into reality.
At Nivalis, we’re a small team of passionate developers. We move fast, think big, and never back down from a challenge. We’re here to take you out of your comfort zone and build stable software that stand the test of time.
At Triakis, we invest in the heart of the French economy by acquiring, managing, and developing highly profitable SMBs (typically €1M to €5M in annual revenue) through technological innovation. We believe every company has a unique story and meaningful growth potential; by combining managerial know-how, technological expertise, and strategic vision, we improve performance while preserving what makes each business distinct.
At Rives Studio, we design campaigns that immediately capture your audience’s attention, even when they’re scrolling. We focus on concepts, visuals, and messaging that earn the first second and convert attention into action, across modern formats and channels.
I started in strategic planning, where I learned to frame problems, understand markets, and choose a direction with discipline. But I’ve always been pulled toward data and technology, the measurable side of decisions, and the satisfaction of building things that work. That pull became central, and I moved into entrepreneurship, where strategy meets execution and where I can take responsibility for building reliable products end-to-end.
A career centered on helping entrepreneurs: building stable software, making better decisions faster, and creating systems that hold up under pressure. I’m interested in real-world leverage—tools, workflows, and product choices that make teams stronger and businesses more resilient.
