About Jérôme

Independent software engineer with 15 years of experience, I possess a rare dual culture: IT Development and Materials Science.

I don't just code; I understand your physical constraints (Strength of Materials, thermal, meshing).

My unique expertise: Making the power of scientific 3D (C++, VTK, OpenCascade) coexist with the robustness of your management applications (WinDev, .NET).

I help industrial software editors and SMEs to:
🚀 Visualize complex parts and simulation results directly within their business tools.
🔄 Make their software interoperable (Read/Write STEP, IGES, STL...).
⚙️ Integrate meshing and geometric calculation algorithms without rewriting everything.

Available for remote work on expert missions or complex module development.

Very happy to have worked with Jérôme. He is precise and powerful. He masters his subject and allows me to see further in my project. No blah-blah or deaf-man's briefing, by the end of the second or third of your sentence, he has understood, and we move on to the next point. This is quite rare and worth noting. Thank you.
