    Lead Data Engineer
    TECH
    September 2021 - December 2023 (2 years and 3 months)
    Paris, France
    Within the Hyperplan team, I was one of the first two employees hired to work on the company's SaaS platform. Hyperplan is a startup specializing in agricultural yield prediction to facilitate and optimize agricultural logistics. Hyperplan uses a large amount of satellite imagery to predict yield.

    As Head of Software and ML Engineering, I worked on numerous data engineering, infrastructure, the first version of the API, and MLOps issues.

    During my tenure, the team grew from 5 to 25 employees in 2 years. Hyperplan's clients include major names such as Axereal, Corteva, Bayer, Vivescia, etc. Hyperplan raised €4.1 million in 2023 and had an ARR of €1 million in 2023.

    At Hyperplan, I was responsible for:

    • Implementing the first development processes with the Head of UI/UX.
    • Implementing and improving the first version of the API.
    • Deploying machine learning models.
    • Setting up and improving data processing pipelines.
    • Implementing all CI/CD.
    • Setting up all AWS infrastructure and transcribing it into IaC.
    • Technical leadership and skill development for 5 new backend and data engineers.

    DIGITAL AND IT
    April 2018 - September 2020 (2 years and 5 months)
    As a freelance consultant, I have worked for various clients on Proof of Concepts, technological consulting, software solution implementation, and training.

    Among these experiences, my two largest projects were at:

    1) Natixis

    Natixis is a French financial institution established in 2006 and present in 40 countries. Natixis has over 13,000 employees and generates revenue exceeding 7 billion euros.

    Within Natixis's data science lab, I worked on a Proof of Concept aimed at demonstrating the feasibility of an algorithm to predict company downgrades by Standard & Poor's and Moody's, based on recent company news and the detection of weak signals that might indicate an upcoming downgrade.

    During this assignment, I specifically:

    • Participated in source research.
    • Collected, processed, and sorted data to prepare for training and testing.
    • Tested various prediction approaches.
    • Implemented different feature engineering approaches to improve prediction.

    Technical context: Python, Pandas, NLP, Sklearn, Linux, BeautifulSoup, SQL, Data Engineering, Data Science, Data Exploration, Data Cleaning, Shell Scripts, Notebooks, CRON

    2) Shanghai Solar Panel Inspection, Ltd.

    At a startup specializing in the inspection of factory-produced solar panels, I contributed to developing an approach to detect solar panel cells that are inefficient and require replacement. Replacing these inefficient cells significantly improves performance.

    The algorithm for detecting faulty cells was integrated into the production lines of some clients, leading to an increased detection rate of faulty panels (specific figures not available).
