What I'm looking for
- Permanent role (full-time) — Lead Engineer, .NET Software Architect, AI Engineer / AI Solutions Architect — €65 — 95k gross / year depending on scope.
- Freelance — architecture missions, native GenAI integration in .NET, performance audits, IoT — €600 — 900 ex. VAT / day depending on context and length.
- Not a fit — pure ML research / fine-tuning, frozen legacy code without evolution room, missions where I would be the only person able to understand the code.
Note about the English version — the bulk of the site is in French (my primary market). Pages translated to English so far: this landing, the CV, the English PDF resume, the JSON Resume schema, the vCard. For project deep-dives, case studies and blog articles, switch to French via the toggle in the top navigation — most content is technical enough that machine translation does the job well.
