About Clodéric

Do you have the intuition that your data can transform your business, enrich your offering, be the basis for a new product? Are you starting from scratch, have you perhaps made a first prototype, or are you assembling a team to operationalize your project.

Depending on your needs, I can intervene at several stages of your project:
- Inventory of available data and identification of opportunities,
- Workshop with business experts and/or end-users to understand expectations,
- Develop an AI feature prototype to demonstrate value,
- Technical diagnosis and roadmap definition for operationalization,
- Team bootstrapping for execution.

I work at your premises or remotely for durations ranging from a few days to a few weeks depending on the needs.

For over 10 years, I have been working in the field of artificial intelligence, first as a developer/researcher, then I took on more responsibility in technical, product, and leadership aspects. In 2015, with some colleagues, I started a startup where I took on the role of CTO. In 5 years, we developed a unique technology, based on original and solid scientific foundations, and we built a packaged product to offer it to clients (large accounts & SMEs) in SaaS mode. Today, the adventure is ending for me.

In this transition period, I would be very happy to leverage my entrepreneurial experience and my AI deployment experience to help you bring more data projects to life!

    April 2015 - April 2020 (5 years and 1 month)
    Paris, France
    Based on prototypes developed at MASA Group, we raised €2M to create craft ai, an API allowing companies to create self-learning AIs capable of collaborating with humans. With over 10 AIs integrating craft ai with clients such as EDF, Total, or Dassault Aviation, craft ai is in full business acceleration.

    As CTO, I was in charge of product and tech activities, I recruited and managed a team of ~15 Machine Learning researchers, Developers, and Data Scientists while staying hands-on in R&D and representing the company externally. I also participated in all aspects of the company's development: fundraising, business model, strategy, ...

  • MASA Group
    Lead Developer & Product Manager
    SOFTWARE PUBLISHING
    January 2012 - March 2015 (3 years and 3 months)
    Paris, France
    I was recruited by MASA Group, an AI leader founded by ENS researchers in 1996, to lead a product development team. For ~3 years, I was in charge of a team of ~5 developers distributed between Paris and Munich. After ~2 years, I also took on the role of product manager. We were developing, from scratch, middleware allowing non-specialists to create and control AIs for simulations and video games.

    I participated in business development and positioning strategy for this product in collaboration with the company's management team, the sales team, and other R&D teams.

  • Golaem
    R&D Developer C++/3D/AI
    SOFTWARE PUBLISHING
    March 2009 - December 2011 (2 years and 10 months)
    Rennes, France
    When Golaem was launched as a spin-off from the INRIA laboratory where I did my master's internship, I joined the startup's R&D team. I participated in the industrialization of the initial academic prototype for crowd simulation; I was in charge of the navigation module (pathfinding and reactive navigation).

    In parallel with the development of these foundations, we worked on several prototype applications with industrial partners. I had the opportunity to coordinate an integration project with Dassault Systèmes and participate in a train passenger simulator with SNCF.

    Today, Golaem's technology has given rise to the leading solution for crowd simulation in the film industry.
