Who am i ?

I am PhD in astrophysics.
I’m currently research engineer in Machine Learning at Observatoire de Paris in LERMA Team.
- Involved in SKA (Square Kilometer Array) radioastronomy telescope project, working on ML algorithms. https://www.skao.int/en
- Also working on a PEATLAND cartography using machine Learning.
Previously I was a research engineer at Institut de physique du globe de Paris () in the Planetology and Space Sciences Lab.
- Mainly working in the NASA InSight mission https://www.seis-insight.eu/fr/ to build tools to analyze the data from the Martian sismometer SEIS.
- Also working on AIT (Assembly Integration and Tests) of the future Lunar seismometer FSS (Farside Seismic Suite) which will be sent in the context of the CLPS (Commercial Lunar Payload Service) from the NASA. https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/missions/farside-seismic-suite
- I use to spend a large amount of time working on building IoT devices to create a homemade turbidimeter.
