I am a supervision, control, test and measurement specialist. I develop several  systems:

• supervision,
• tests production sequencer,
• instruments drivers,
• automatized and semi-automatized test and measurement benches,
• instrumentation (National Instruments, Racal, HP, Agilent, Rodhe & Schwartz...).

My strong competence in the field of test and measurement has led me to participate in various projects of:

• aeronautics,
• automotive,
• armament,
• food,
• petrochemicals,
• energy, electricity,
• telecom,
• construction,
• scientific research,
• pharmacology,
• cosmetology.

I started my professional life in 1998 when joining IS3i, a service company specialized in industrial technology (IT) within SEO Group. As a partner of National Instruments, this  company was offering its service engineers to  develop test benches. I had the opportunity to developpe my first softwares dedicated to tests, measurements, acquisition and instruments control using LabVIEW, TestStand and LabWindows/CVI.

In 2001, I have been promoted as a project manager. I was in charge of technical and financial proposals,  follow-up and projects completion I was responsible to settle engineers teams and define material specifications to our subcontractors. During this period, our company joined Brime Technologies group within wich IS3i organisation was ever present.

In 2003, I took the technical direction of this former IS3i entity in Assystem France group. I had opportunity to get experience:to   engineers recruitment in order to integrate my teams, to develop my ability in staff coaching and to increase my capacity in  project management and broader financial trading with our customers and suppliers. Then I was charged of Zodiac Aerospace and Schlumberger accounts, responsible of  engineers and technicians teams dedicated to their related technical assistance.

Throughout those experiences and always pursuing the goal to get a stronger technical skill, I decided in 2005 to wing my way and I started to offer my own expertise as a freelancer consultant.
