About Mickael

Fractional CPO & CTO — Product, AI & Growth | SaaS · Mobile · B2B

You need an experienced product and tech leader, without hiring a full-time CPO or CTO? I quickly integrate into your organization to structure your product vision, lead your technical teams, and embed AI at the heart of your strategy.

Co-founder for 11 years of a B2B SaaS publisher that I grew from 0 to €2M ARR, I've been through all the stages — and all the mistakes — you're looking to avoid. Product, Tech, Marketing, Strategy, Go-to-Market: I built it all from scratch, often by trial and error. Today, I put this experience directly at the service of your teams to go faster, with fewer false starts.

I also specialize in unblocking startups and scale-ups that have lost momentum. A targeted audit, a product or commercial repositioning, and growth picks up again — it's often less complex than it seems when you know where to look.

My expertise in generative AI (RAG, GraphRAG, agent orchestration) allows me to go beyond consulting: I design and manage AI systems directly integrated into your product, with a measurable value logic from the first weeks.
What I do concretely for you:
  • Audit your product, positioning, and growth mechanics
  • Define or take over your product, marketing, and Go-to-Market strategy
  • Structure your Product organization (processes, rituals, OKRs)
  • Coach and upskill your technical teams: developers, DevOps, SRE, Data Scientists, ML Engineers
  • Manage your AI initiatives end-to-end (POC → production)
  • Implement product retention and growth mechanics (PLG)
  • Align tech and business at the C-level

I work part-time AND/OR on project missions, for commitments ranging from a few months to several years.
