About Adithya

For 6 years, I have been managing innovation projects at the intersection of technology, operations, and European coordination. Whether deploying electric charging infrastructure in 13 countries, designing CFD simulation-based H₂S capture devices, or developing smart charging algorithms, my method remains the same: clarify needs, write precise specifications, align technical and business teams, and deliver on time.

Today, I leverage this dual expertise (Product + Project management) for startups and companies developing digital products or technical solutions (SaaS, energy, smart city, mobility, environment).

If you are looking for someone who speaks the language of product strategy, technical jargon, and has proven experience in managing complex European projects, let's talk.

    ENERGY AND UTILITIES
    March 2020 - January 2026 (5 years and 10 months)
    Bures-sur-Yvette, France
    R&D Portfolio Management: €1.2M+ deployment of 14 EV charging sites in 13 countries – from concept to commissioning, with zero regulatory non-compliance.

    What I delivered concretely:

    Coordination of 40+ partners: industrial companies, network operators, municipalities, laboratories – technical alignment between work packages, resolution of cross-border interfaces.
    Technical governance of European consortia: facilitating committees, traceability of decisions, delivery of R&D deliverables and reporting to the European Commission.
    Functional & technical specifications: for smart charging algorithms (real-time pricing, PV production, grid signal) – used by internal and external development teams.
    Interoperability frameworks (EMS-BMS) deployed on Dublin/Porto pilots – reduced integration complexity, standardized multi-site rollouts.
    Reproducible R&D deployment methodologies: modular architectures to minimize custom development and accelerate experimentation.
    Notable European Projects (Horizon Europe):

    RESONANCE (Grant 101096200) - Pilot French Lead: smart charging + PV self-consumption in 6 countries (KPIs, data collection, impact assessment).
    PROBONO - Task Lead: standardization of EMS-BMS protocols, reduced implementation time on the Dublin pilot.
    Associated Skills:
    Project portfolio management, Multi-partner coordination, Technical specifications, Smart charging, EMS/BMS interoperability, European Commission reporting, Deployment methodologies, Regulatory risk management
    KPIs and Metric Definition and Monitoring Project Portfolio Management European Commission Reporting Deployment Methodologies Regulatory Risk Management
  • INSA Lyon - Institut National des Sciences Appliquées de Lyon
    Project Engineer
    ARCHITECTURE AND URBAN PLANNING
    June 2022 - April 2023 (10 months)
    Lyon, France
    Design and sizing of a passive H₂S degassing/filtration system for the sanitation networks of the Lyon Metropolis.

    Key achievements:

    CFD modeling using ANSYS Fluent: two-phase flow simulations (water-air) at free surface to optimize hydraulic-aerodynamic performance before construction.
    Technical innovations integrated into the device: progressive widening (acceleration/aeration), energy dissipators (creation of a localized hydraulic jump), inspection chambers for filtration.
    Recommendations based on simulations directly influenced the final geometry of the equipment and the sensor placement strategy.
    Participation in field deployment with the Lyon Metropolis and the Urban Hydrology Field Observatory (OTHU).
    Implementation of metrological instrumentation for performance monitoring (flow meters, pressure sensors, etc.).
    Associated Skills:
    CFD Simulation, Two-phase modeling, ANSYS Fluent, Technical sizing, Field instrumentation, Multi-partner collaboration (local authority + academic), Specifications for manufacturing
    Software Validation Sizing Specifications for Manufacturing Ideation Workshops Product Backlog Management
  • Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1
    Postdoctoral Researcher
    CHEMICAL
    April 2021 - December 2021 (8 months)
    Lyon, France
    Development of a mathematical model coupling hydrodynamics and population equations to predict crystallization in membrane contactors (CO₂ capture).

    Key achievements:

    Multiphysics modeling using COMSOL and OpenFOAM: laminar flow simulation, validation with experimental data.
    Algorithm development (Matlab) to model nucleation, crystal growth, agglomeration, and solid phase transport.
    COMSOL/Matlab coupling: integration of population balance equations to capture local flow ↔ dispersed phase interactions.
    Comparison of predictions (crystal size distribution, fouling zones) with experimental thesis results.
    International collaboration initiated and maintained with Johannes Kepler University (Linz, Austria) on multi-scale modeling of crystallization processes.
    Scientific deliverables: validated predictive model, Matlab algorithms, technical documentation, experimental comparison reports.
    Associated Skills:
    Mathematical modeling, Algorithmic development (Matlab), Multiphysics simulation (COMSOL, OpenFOAM), Software coupling, Experimental validation, International collaboration, Technical documentation
