Description

I help companies design, build and scale production-grade AI systems.

Over the last 15+ years, I have delivered AI solutions for organizations including Sanofi, Chanel, Renault, Jellysmack and Prose, spanning Computer Vision, recommendation systems, optimization, machine learning platforms and, more recently, GenAI applications.

My expertise covers the full lifecycle of AI products: from problem framing and model development to cloud infrastructure, deployment, monitoring and continuous improvement in production.

I also bring leadership experience as former Head of AI at Prose, where I defined AI strategy, led teams and worked closely with executive stakeholders.

My background combines a PhD in Physics, hands-on engineering experience and a strong focus on delivering measurable business impact.

Vincent a su mettre à profit son expertise sur le machine learning / computer vision pour réaliser le prototype. Il a été très professionnel, les intéractions ont été très bonnes, a bien su communiquer et passer les connaissances à la fin des développements. Je recommande sans hésiter Vincent pour ce type de projets.
