What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can lead 0-to-1 AI product builds, combine hands-on engineering with product strategy, and scale repeatable revenue and ops workflows.

I am a product manager and AI engineer with hands-on experience launching AI-native startups and building agentic systems across product, sales, HR, and finance. I combine technical depth in LLM agents, ML, and automation with product execution and GTM strategy.

My background includes a Master's in Data Science (Sorbonne) and professional roles spanning startup studios, investment operations, and fast-moving startups in Paris, Sydney, and San Francisco. I translate ambiguity into prototypes, PRDs, and repeatable processes that drive early traction.

I have led or co-launched multiple ventures, designed RAG-enabled copilots, and implemented end-to-end automation pipelines using APIs, Zapier, n8n, Supabase and lightweight dashboards. I also bring financial rigor from audit, controller, and CFO-style work: P&L analysis, budgeting, and founder-friendly reporting.

I deliver 0-to-1 product strategy, AI engineering, revenue operations, and technical content—building practical systems that reduce manual work, accelerate decisions, and scale repeatable venture outcomes.
