Skills

Every project I’ve been part of since 2018 involved python. And while working on Palantir’s Foundry platform for a few years, I also had the opportunity to develop in pyspark. I gradually became an expert in many of the modules the platform offers. I often work with git as a version control system, and I am also quite familiar with DevOps set of practices. My experience with docker and Gitlab’s CI/CD has been mostly acquired from personal projects but has proven handy at work sometimes.

This is my main set of development skills. I am expert with python based data science libraries like pandas, scikit-learn, pytorch, Huggingface’s transformers, nltk, spacy, etc… I also have a some knowledge about the experiment tracker mlflow and hyperparameter tuning library optuna. As a data-driven business consultant, I also practiced a few data visualisation libraries like seaborn, matplotlib and plotly/dash. I also run an MLFlow instance for machine learning experiments and self-hosted LLMs assistants using Ollama and OpenWebUI.

From time to time, I put a lot of my free time learning some Web Development skills. They were initially acquired for a community project, but I also discovered new technologies and skills. Most of my initial website built from scratch with Bootstrap and PHP are now archived, and I am now working with Static Site Generators like Hugo or CMS like WordPress.

Another area of interest is self-hosting. I am a faithful Linux and free and open source software (FOSS) advocate. I value privacy and security for my personal life and data, and I am willing to replace most invasive online services with self-hosted solutions whenever possible. It got me into Linux and Docker at start and lead me to discover and deploy numerous services. The website you’re reading now is hosted on my own home server. On the AI side, I also run an MLFlow instance for machine learning experiments coupled to a miniIO model registry. I self-host LLMs assistants using Ollama and OpenWebUI.

French is my mother tongue, and I’m perfectly able to work in English (TOEFL: 637/670). In fact, I already have, several times. I learned a lot of Spanish at school and went a semester abroad. I also know a little Chinese, just a little…
