- high level design - requirement analysis and allocation - Risk analysis on architectural design - responsible for quality gates - audits - customer presentations - Internal team coordination

- review architecture changes - ensuring global software consistency, efficiency - special attention to licensing issues - arbitrate between costs and technical benefits - Support for other domain architects regarding customer processes - communication to other domain architects regarding architecture decisions - Code reviews - Point of contact with customer architecture team

- design of sw components reusing open source software - Software prototyping - Low level requirement analysis for RFQs - Change requests effort estimation - Code reviews - Technical support for developers (software, GIT, yocto recipes, crashes analysis, memory analysis, tools...) - Requirement elicitation - Software modeling and linking - Documentation - Linux Kernel configuration - Analysis of standards (HDCP, NFS,...)

- Linux system configuration - problem/bug/ticket analysis

Designed part of the architecture of an HPC (High Performance Computing) system for signal processing, including: - the development of dedicated signal processing cores on FPGA using hardware languages (HDL) or in C++ with high level synthesis (HLS) tools - definitition of simple Software API to use Hardware capabilities - a high bandwidth mechanism to transfer data between the Linux software network and programmable hardware (FPGA)

In a team of about fifteen people, I brought my technical expertise - either hardware or software - to the customer. I also helped the team leader to manage the team and the strategic and commercial relationship with the customer.

Founded Pinea to revolutionize prosumer high fidelity multimedia products. My goal was to create products that allow users to remove player cabinets, webs of cables and complex user guides. - Specification / Marketing: the design of full-featured and innovative product with simplicity in mind - Technical: Challenge to hide the technical complexity to the user. Applied for patent on an innovative patent. - Administrative / Financial: managing the company and find financial supports

- FPGA IP development. Example: real time video decoder in high definition cinema format (JPEG2000 4K). - Electronic boards design (PCB) with microprocessors and FPGA - Software development on microcontrolers, soft-cores and Linux drivers for hardware verification and validation. As an example I designed a multichannel player/recorder for the broadcast market. Lead hardware engineer for several products.
