About

Software engineering apprentice at IMT Mines Alès and CINES, where I am the sole developer of FACILE, a national public file format validation service for long-term digital preservation. I enjoy designing robust solutions, sizing them to real needs and documenting my choices so others can pick them up. My international mobility in Cambodia, where I designed a self-learning AI for Cambodian chess, strengthened my interest in artificial intelligence and my ability to work in English in an international setting.

Personality Traits

My
rigor 
enables me to approach each project with method and determination. Autonomous and proactive, I adapt quickly to new work environments. My interpersonal skills and team spirit foster effective collaboration and contribute to achieving collective goals.

Key Skills

My academic background and personal projects have provided me with a comprehensive vision of software development. I adopt a methodical approach in solution design, systematically analyzing different options and anticipating technical constraints before committing to implementation.

My sports practice has strengthened my team spirit and leadership abilities. I know how to work within multidisciplinary teams, encourage collaboration, and contribute to collective problem-solving.

Video games have developed my responsiveness and ability to adapt quickly, valuable assets in a constantly evolving technological environment.

Interests

My passion for technology naturally led me to computer science, from building hardware configurations to mastering multiple programming languages. I am also very interested in artificial intelligence, which is set to revolutionize the world in every sense, as well as in physics, the study of stars, and the quantum world, which fascinates me with its radically different rules that seem to defy logic. In parallel, I cultivate a strong interest in Japanese culture, video games, and sports, which nurture my creativity and open-mindedness. Cooking also represents a creative outlet where I enjoy experimenting and discovering new flavors.

Playing volleyball since middle school has allowed me to develop essential transferable skills: communication, coordination, and focus. This sport has instilled in me the values of teamwork and perseverance, which I apply daily in my professional projects. Recently, I also discovered snowboarding, a discipline that allows me to push my limits and maintain personal balance.

Current Goal

I am in the second year of my engineering apprenticeship at CINES. My immediate goal is the national production release of FACILE 2.1. Meanwhile, I am strengthening my skills in project management, application security and test automation.

Career Objective

My ambition is to become a software engineer and contribute to innovative high-impact projects. Through my training at IMT Mines Alès, I am developing solid technical expertise and a deep understanding of modern software development challenges. I aim to leverage these skills within a dynamic company where I can continue to grow and deliver real added value.
