About Xavier

Expert in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science, with a PhD in Computer Science. I help companies design, develop, and industrialize high-value AI solutions.

I work on machine learning, deep learning, and generative AI (LLM) projects, from business needs assessment to production deployment, including model optimization and integration into industrial environments.

My expertise covers advanced modeling, neural network architectures, decision-making AI, and performance optimization (robustness, explainability, computational constraints).

Accustomed to working with data, IT, and business teams, I can act as a technical expert, AI referent, or senior consultant, for both short-term expertise missions and longer-term structuring projects.
