Work Experience
Software Engineer
Freelance
- Built Quizflip, the first digital flashcard using two ePaper screens to provide a smooth flashcard experience despite the limitations of e-ink technology. [Embedded C, freeRTOS, Python, React Native].
- Created Ineo-Sense, tooling for communication, and reprogramming of IoT products. [C++ and Qt].
- Developed Unigrid for modularization of a home automation product interface. [C++ and Qt].
- Programmed VisionsLive, a differential measure of two GPS trackers to find on the flight travel time between two runners (Python).
- Developed TBC-France, an API simulator to test the communication between a security robot and its cloud-based control platform.
- Implemented a security layer in the embedded software of a new cloud-connected thermostatic head for COMAP (Embedded C, STM32, Contiki, security).
- Developed multiple IOT projects, including component selection, PCB board (Altium Designer), and embedded software.
Embedded Software Engineer
Analog Way
- Developed evolutions of the livecore video switcher and mixer platform (C on ARM M3), including bug correction in a preexisting codebase and development of new features.
- Designed an EDID editor (256-byte memory inside displays) using Qt (available here). This software has since been used and recommended by many industry leaders.
- Improved an internal control, debug, and analysis tool in C# used on all of Analog Way's products, including stabilization of the existing application and development of new features.
- Implemented an internal versioning server, now used for all the R&D projects.
Engineering Intern
MAVlab
- Implemented the paparazzi autopilot on an ornithopter (flapping drone).
- Improved an ESC for inconsistent load systems like flapping robots.
- Built the first ornithopter capable of flying fully autonomously outside.
Image Processing Algorithm Development Intern
EMULSAR
- Engineered an application dedicated to measuring the thickness of emulsions.
- Developed a modular control system based on microcontroller elements for scheduling chemical experiments automatically.
- Designed a logical process to refine and fine tune an image processing application to process videos from a microscope.
Technical Intern
NVT
- Developed multiple applications dedicated to motor control using LabVIEW.
- Did a test campaign in a railway environment needing data acquisition and sensor maintenance.
- Developed multiple applications dedicated to data and image processing using LabVIEW.
Experience
Quizflip: The First Digital Flashcard
My work is focused on the embedded software on the device. Nevertheless, I developed a Python script to generate cards for the device and helped push forward the React Native-based mobile application.
Suiseki
I developed this project to scratch my itch and made it available to anyone that needs it online.
EDID Editor
https://www.analogway.com/emea/products/software-tools/aw-edid-editor/This application is developed in C++ using the Qt framework. It is developed in blocks, each of them implementing a part of the VESA standard.
