  • Implemented software responsible for understanding what products were taken off the shelves and by which patron. The software worked using 3D cameras and a mix of Computer Vision and Artificial Intelligence algorithms.
  • Lead a move of the stores’ various pieces of software to ROS. This move allowed our team to iterate faster on projects, lowered the barrier of entry for new recruits, and naturally improved software design practices.

Data Scientist

Jun — Dec 2018

Karos ⋅ AI-assisted carpool match maker

Paris, FR

Karos makes carpooling effortless: it matches together commuters with similar habits, turning the network of car drivers into an extension of the public transport system, and improving the well-being of the users.

  • Shrank the number of irrelevant matches by 30% by building, training and deploying a Machine Learning model that predicted likeliness of a match between two users to be accepted.
  • Improved the throughput of the fraud detection system by a factor of 50 per month, by designing, training and deploying a semi-supervised clustering model.

Software Engineer

Jun — Aug 2017

blòkur ⋅ Blockchain-enabled music rights management

London, UK
  • Worked on building the foundation of the Blòkur start-up. Working in Golang, I redesigned and reimplemented a single-thread file processing algorithm into a highly concurrent, fault-tolerant system that could run across multiple processors across multiple AWS servers.
  • Rewrote the proprietary music-work matching algorithm to optimize the overall speed, the PostgreSQL requests, and added multi-processing, which together cut the processing time by a factor of ten. Beyond that, I enjoyed gaining experience working within a burgeoning start-up on a tight schedule with its angel investors.

iOS App Developer

RiteTag ⋅ AI for social media presence

(Remote)
  • Took part in RiteTag’s mobile team to build the iOS app that goes along the web app.
  • Built and lead a team to take on designing and implementing in Swift the foundation for the new direction the company was about to take. Our role was to split the already existing app into two parts: the actual app and a private framework that a new upcoming suite of apps would use. The team most definitely appreciated the solution I came up with, and my work still lives on in the published apps of the company.
