About me

Astrophysicist turned Data Science Director, I combine scientific rigor with industrial expertise to design and deploy high-impact Data & AI solutions.

Physicist, Data Scientist, passionate about data and its applications

Holding a PhD in observational cosmology from the University of Lyon, I began my career in international fundamental research: flux calibration of the SNfactory integral field spectrograph, data pipeline development for the EUCLID space mission (ESA), and X-ray imaging on synchrotrons (SOLEIL, ESRF, University of Bonn). This background gave me rare expertise in large-scale data processing, advanced statistical analysis, and scientific software development.

Since 2020, I have applied this rigor in industry at Araïko (formerly Cynapps.ai), where I lead the Data Science team and the Complex Bespoke Projects Business Unit (10 people). I drive Data/ML/AI R&D projects from strategic planning through to production deployment, with full ownership of the MLOps stack — from requirements analysis to infrastructure.

Skills

I believe learning never stops. My scientific background has trained me to master new domains quickly — from observational cosmology to production Machine Learning.
