What I do for you:
• AI Scoping & Prioritization (audit of existing systems, clear ROI in 2 weeks)
• Roadmap & Governance (processes, KPIs)
• AI/GenAI Project Management (RAG, agents, Data Capture, etc.)
• Coordination of industrialization and production deployment (Azure/Cloud/K8s, CI/CD, monitoring, Responsible AI)
• Change & Adoption (workshops, training, business onboarding)

What sets me apart:
• A true technical background: Data Science engineering cycle (ENSAE) + Master's in Data Science research at ENS (MVA) + initial years as a Data Scientist. I design technically sound solutions and anticipate business needs.
• 5 years of consulting experience: accustomed to quickly onboarding into new environments and delivering in complex organizations (banking, luxury).

AI Expertise Lead - CHANEL SAS - Corporate IT

Reviewed on 5/28/2026

I called on Clément for an AI Project Manager role within our GenAI team, and I am particularly satisfied with the collaboration that has lasted for over 2 years. He quickly grasped the specific challenges of each activity, translated these needs into AI projects managed from ideation to production, with a focus on the value generated across a dozen projects since the start of his tenure (AI Agents, RAG, Multimodal projects). Business teams trust him, and technical teams do too, thanks to his Data Scientist background: this is a difficult balance to achieve. I recommend him without hesitation for any AI project management role.
