About me
Since September 2025, I am a teacher and researcher at the Aflokkat organization located in Ajaccio, Corsica. I teach computer science and AI to students in the engineering schools MIRA and ESIA.
Building upon strong foundations in Smart Grids optimization and Artificial Intelligence (AI), my research trajectory is now evolving to encompass the applied integration of AI, the Internet of Things (IoT), and Robotics. This interdisciplinary approach is focused on developing intelligent and scalable solutions for immediate industrial deployment.
Specifically, I aim at leveraging AI algorithms for predictive analytics and real-time decision-making, which are crucial for enhancing the resilience and efficiency of energy systems, especially on an island such as Corsica. These algorithms rely heavily on data of various sorts which are collected through the deployment of sector-specific and robust sensors infrastructures. The integration of Robotics in such systems offers very interesting opportunities for automation of complex tasks such as inspection and maintenance. The objective is to provide a tangible link between data-driven insights and physical actions.
My research project aims at being deeply rooted in the Corsican entrepreneurial ecosystem with the objective of delivering concrete and high-impact innovation through dedicated collaborative research projects with local and national industry partners. I actively seek to establish strong, mutually beneficial partnerships with industrial actors to ensure a direct and concrete impact of our research work.
Finally, I also have a strong interest in software development and open source projects. You can find more details on my contributions through my GitHub profile.

Prior positions
Inria (November 2020 - July 2025)
Before joining Aflokkat, I was a research engineer at the Inria Paris center, in France. I was a member of the Service Experimentation and Development, a service dedicated to providing technical support to the research teams of the institute.
One component of this support was a direct involvement in the engineering projects of research teams. Another component was a constant technological watch and experimentation in order to keep cutting-edge tooling and best practices in the research teams. To that end, I organized regular training sessions for researchers, engineers, or PhD students.
From february 2022 to July 2025, I was working mostly in the ARAMIS team located at the Paris Brain Institute. Part of my work was dedicated to leading open source projects of the team, like Clinica, ClinicaDL, or Leaspy.
Before joining the Paris center, I was a research engineer in the PARIETAL team at the Saclay center of Inria. I was mainly working on developping and maintaining neuro-science and machine learning softwares like Nilearn.
LIP6 (December 2018 - October 2020)
Before joining Inria, I was a postdoctoral reasearcher in the Complex Networks team, at the computer science laboratory of Paris 6 (LIP6) from December 2018 to October 2020. My research work at LIP6 was focused on designing methods for the automatic detection of anomalies in large sequences of interactions. The main applications of this work are related to fraud detection in financial transactions. During that time, I was also teaching computer science and networking at the Paris 6 University.
NREL (March 2017 - November 2018)
Before working at LIP6, I was a postdoctoral researcher in the Power Systems Design and Studies group at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in Golden, Colorado, USA from March 2017 to November 2018. The purpose of this group is to study how power distribution systems can sustain the increasing penetration of renewable energy resources. Within this group, I was mainly working on creating and implementing optimization methods to solve large scale problems such as distribution planning or hosting capacity analysis.
PhD thesis (2013 - 2016)
I obtained my PhD in October 2016, at Telecom SudParis, Saclay, France. My PhD work was focused on modeling and optimizing smart power grid systems. For more details, you can find my PhD thesis here.
During my PhD I was teaching at the Paris 6 University various courses from networking to algorithmic.
