Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

**Architect in secure embedded systems**, I support my clients in the design of innovative embedded systems (Nordic nRF5340 MCUs, Zephyr RTOS), with a strong focus on cybersecurity (RED Directive, CRA, SE EAL6+, PSA Crypto, TrustZone TF-M, PKI, MCUBoot secure bootloader).

Services

Versatile in electronics and signal processing, I carry out complete IoT studies and prototypes: PCBs, firmware, 3D printing, OTA servers, analysis reports. I integrate AI for sensor processing (TensorFlow Lite) and the creation of companion GUIs.

My work iterates between specification and development:

I formalize and draft strategic decisions with an emphasis on interfaces and structural patterns, UML, inversion and dependency injection, a balanced compromise between modularity, simplicity, security, and performance.
Independently or integrated into teams, I participate in key developments and tests: PoC, vertical slice.

Experience

With a PhD in Computer Science, I have acquired 12 years of experience in companies and at the LIS Marseille research laboratory:

- From 2013 to 2021,I participated in the adventure of LED'sChat, a startup specializing in connected LED panels. I worked on clock synchronization and the design of interactive procedural animations combining distributed algorithms and IR sensor fusion.

- **Since 2021**, I have provided technical leadership in the R&D department of STid, a leading SME in RFID access control, where I designed the electronic and software architecture for the latest products, CI/CD, and the security of certificate provisioning. My main contribution has been to establish a graphical event-driven paradigm to express business logic. This strategic choice allows abstraction from hardware and, with a compartmentalized multi-repo, parallel development across different teams. This flexible approach allows the product to be adapted to new use cases.

PhD thesis on "Low-Power Large Mesh Networks: Minimalist Protocols for Synchronization, Distance Measurement, and Partitioning" (defense scheduled for January 2021).

During my thesis, I designed numerous practical algorithms and protocols for efficient, large-scale synchronization of wired and wireless microcontroller networks. I also developed software techniques for precise spatial localization of radio modules (NRF52832) and partitioning algorithms for efficient bandwidth sharing in grid graphs.
