Data Engineer | Data Scientist

2022 - 2023
Stellantis
  • Released major upgrades to an internal library used by many engineering teams. Developed and improved some ETL pipelines for cleaning and aggregating connected vehicle data (volume of data: around 6TB/day).
  • Collaborated with domain experts on a €40 million/year quality issue using automatic anomaly detection on sensor recordings.
  • Mentored some junior data engineers and extended the contract from 3 to 12 months.

Software Engineer | Data Engineer

2019 - 2022
Implicity
  • Developed a Python module for monitoring the daily weight of about one thousand patients at risk of heart failure, using data from connected weight scales. Developed internal tools for anonymizing and parsing some PDF documents.
  • Helped significantly improve the speed and reliability of some ETL pipelines for importing data of around 40,000 patients from French hospitals and cardiac device manufacturers. Participated in refactoring the database of patient data.
  • Contributed to recruiting efforts by interviewing college-level and experienced data scientists.
Technologies: Python, Pandas, GitLab, CI/CD Pipelines, Serverless, Docker, PySpark, SQL, PiLLoW

Software Engineer | Data Scientist

2018 - 2019
Roam Analytics (acquired by Parexel)
  • Integrated GloVe, FastText, and ELMo into an internal natural language processing (NLP) library. Finetuned GloVe vectors on the PubMed dataset. Analyzed some customer text corpus and trained NER models.
  • Contributed to two scientific papers for NLP on clinical text with Christopher Potts (implementation of the models, experiments, redaction); (cf. https://arxiv.org/search/cs?searchtype=author&query=Godefroy%2C+B).
  • Managed crowdsourcing for the company (budget: $80,000/year) with the partner Appen. Implemented an expectation–maximization algorithm for inferring gold labels from noisy labels.

A Specialized Search Engine

https://roamsanity.com
A simple search engine for everything related to the Roam Research web app (roamresearch.com). The search engine won a $7,000 cash prize at an international contest, and around 50 people use the website daily.

Deliverables:
• Developed modules for scraping Slack, Twitter, and Roam Research using Python and Selenium.
• Developed a simple search engine web app using Python, Elasticsearch, and JavaScript.
• Deployed the project with Docker, GitHub Actions, and AWS.

Syllabics.io

https://syllabics.io
I have created a tool to improve my English pronunciation.

• Deep Learning: Studied the state of the art in automatic speech recognition. Trained a denoising autoencoder to make speech features more robust to variations in the speaker's voice, background noise, and microphone. Trained and evaluated many deep-learning models for phoneme recognition and voice activity detection.

• User Experience: Developed multiple web app prototypes and collected feedback from potential users.

• Serverless Architecture: Optimized cost, response time, and scalability by switching to a serverless architecture. The analysis of one thousand recordings by the website currently costs around €0.05, with a response time of around one second, and the system can scale almost infinitely.
