Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

Engineer specialized in energy systems and storage, I manage BESS projects from design to sizing, translating business and technical needs into clear and actionable functional specifications.

With experience in developing energy management systems (EMS) — optimization on spot markets, system services, and capacity mechanisms — I have a deep understanding of the operational and availability constraints of storage assets.

I also work on technical-economic aspects (business plans, CAPEX/OPEX, ROI/IRR), which allows me to align product evolutions with business challenges and prioritize with discernment.

Accustomed to collaborating with multidisciplinary teams (business, tech, PO), I am committed to ensuring the functional consistency of products throughout their lifecycle.
