Work experience
From March 2023 Research & Development
to March 2024 Akkodis - R&I Lille
Prompt-free few-shot classification: Fine-tuning Sentence
Transformers using contrastive learning
Developed a Python pipeline for fine-tuning Sentence
Transformers on any classification use-case using few
labeled data.
Submitted a benchmark article to JMLR (Journal of
Machine Learning Research).
Retrieval augmented generation:
Implemented an advanced RAG architecture in Python
using Langchain, Hugging Face TGI & TEI, ensemble
retriever, and semantic chunking.
Developed a robust ingestion pipeline using
Unstructured and an advanced OCR module (finetuned
YOLO for layout detection, PaddleOCR for text
detection & recognition, and Microsoft table structure
recognition).
Predictive maintenance:
Implemented state-of-the-art articles on predictive
maintenance using Python.
Created and deployed an API hosted in the cloud for
streaming and batch processing using FastAPI.

September 2023 Conducted exploratory analysis of normal operations
versus anomalies based on historical
corrective/preventive maintenance data using Python.
Performed feature engineering, including feature
generation and advanced variable selection using Python
(tsfresh, ANOVA scores, and hypothesis testing, ...)
Implemented explainable predictive maintenance
algorithms in Python using generated features.
