With over 20 years of experience in development and technical leadership, I help startups and companies transform their ideas into functional, scalable, and secure products.
What I do
- Rapid development of MVPs and POCs to test a market or convince investors.
- Part-time CTO: defining product vision, technical roadmap, team support.
- Integration of Generative AI and NLP solutions: LLMs (ChatGPT, Llama, Rust + WebAssembly) for local, secure, and high-performance applications.
- Architecture and DevOps: CI/CD, cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure, Scaleway), automated deployments, and cost optimization.
My approach
- Product-oriented: I connect technology to business objectives.
- Hands-on: I can start a project from scratch or fix a complex situation.
- International experience: projects led in France, the US, and Europe in SaaS, AI, and video.
Recent examples
- Development of Opla, an open-source platform for local AI assistants focused on privacy.
- Design of a distributed cryptographic platform with Rust, React, FastAPI, WebAssembly, and P2P.
- Hands-on CTO at Storyfox, a video SaaS leveraging generative AI and cloud scalability.
Whether you're an early-stage startup looking for an MVP or a scale-up seeking to structure your product and team, I help you deliver quickly, efficiently, and with the right technical vision.
