Summary
For 19+ years I've turned complex, multi-team challenges in international environments into products people really use.
From idea to working prototype with AI. From prototype to a product people actually use.
A few examples:
→ Pernod Ricard's first report under the new EU sustainability law (CSRD): 10+ data sources in one audit-ready model, published on the legal deadline.
→ One Group finance dashboard replacing local reports: 8 of 10 business units live, 250 users, 1,000+ views a month.
→ 80 subsidiaries sharing the same taxonomy in one Master Data Management tool, then a reusable data layer feeding 10+ apps and dashboards.
→ A social intranet merging 300 legacy sites for 80,000 TotalEnergies employees: 25 countries in under a year, 90% profile activation.
→ An apps factory built from zero in under 3 months: paper safety inspections replaced by tablets on 36 sites.
How I work: discovery first, adoption as the success metric, bridging business and tech both ways. AI drafts, I decide.
8 years fully remote, with teams across the globe. Based in South-West France.
