Baptistin Boilot developed and enhanced fuzz testing frameworks and memory management features for the LedgerHQ/app-ethereum and ledger-secure-sdk repositories. He focused on expanding test coverage for Ethereum transaction paths, including EIP712 and EIP-7702 signing, by refactoring fuzz harnesses and introducing new automation scripts. Using C, CMake, and Python, he standardized secure memory clearing, improved error handling in install workflows, and implemented robust bounds checks for device drivers. His work addressed reliability and security by reducing false positives, improving reporting, and enabling earlier defect detection, demonstrating depth in embedded systems, fuzz testing, and backend development across multiple codebases and workflows.

Month: 2026-01 — LedgerHQ/ledger-secure-sdk: Delivered robust error handling and improved reporting across core subsystems, with a focus on install parameter generation and Makefile-driven workflows. Key changes include enhanced BIP32 path parsing error handling for reserved wildcard values and clearer, actionable error reporting for install parameters, including failures from Makefile and Python scripts. These changes reduce triage time, increase reliability of the installation path, and improve observability. Technologies/skills demonstrated include error handling patterns, parsing logic, cross-script orchestration, and observability enhancements.
