About Paul

A trained engineer, strongly influenced by design approaches, I am interested in human-data interactions, whether in operational, scientific, journalistic, or artistic approaches. I particularly appreciate the collaborative dynamics required by data exploitation between future users, data producers, and designers. This involves a variety of skill sets that benefit from being cross-referenced and hybridized in innovative solutions.

Co-founder of the Ouestware agency, I can work on your projects (web application creation, algorithm creation, design, consulting) alone or with my colleagues (Benoît Simard and Alexis Jacomy) by bringing my skills in software engineering, data visualization, interface design and development, and data science in particular.

    As head of a team of research engineers, I led numerous projects within the médialab in collaboration with researchers in the Human and Social Sciences, combining software engineering, information design, and data science.
    I developed a solid experience in data visualization by developing a research focus on the development of tools (called datascape) for exploratory data analysis adapted to the context of the SHS. By creating a web corpus creation software (web crawler), the web has become not only a means of disseminating applications but also a vast documentary space that can prove to be a very rich field of investigation for researchers.
    I have perfected my skills in data science thanks to the numerous data sets in History, Economics, Political Science (etc) manipulated using various Python or JavaScript libraries ranging from collection to publication in Open Data.
    Finally, this experience has given me a theoretical perspective on the practice of data investigation and analysis thanks to numerous readings and discussions with my colleagues in Sociology of Science and Technology (selection bias, what is evidence, the constructivism of data...).
