About Thibaud

A physicist by training, a scientific software engineer by profession: I develop and industrialize software tools for physical modeling, numerical simulation, scientific computing, and data analysis. I speak two languages that rarely coexist: that of physics and that of software engineering.

Your simulation models work but remain fragile, impossible to maintain without their author? Do you have legacy code in FORTRAN, MATLAB, or Excel to modernize? This is exactly where I come in.

▸ Development and industrialization of Python packages (packaging, testing, Docker containerization, CI/CD) — including modernization of code.

▸ Software architecture consulting for R&D teams: code audit, practice structuring, CI/CD implementation

▸ Interface between scientific teams and software development: translation of business needs into technical specifications, support for skill development

▸ Processing and analysis of data from simulations or sensors

Nearly 4 years of experience, including two European Horizon Europe research projects. I integrate agent AI tools into my workflows to accelerate development, my scientific rigor, and my quality control to guarantee the result.
