After completing his engineering degree, Alexandre decided to specialise in data science so that he could harness the power of artificial intelligence in all its forms for the sake of efficiency and simplicity.<\/p>\n

It was at MaiaSpace that he was able to use his talents to make this goal a reality and demonstrate the intelligent application of this technology. Like their launch vehicle, they must go faster and faster in order to realise their European dream of achieving reuse in record time. To do this, why not enter into symbiosis with LLMs to become a kind of cyborg, capable of using 100% of their engineering brain on complex engineering tasks?<\/p>\n

Since they proved with Antony that this fusion pays off, the number of applications has multiplied, and its role is now to architect all these projects.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n \n

With a master’s degree in History and Philosophy of Science, technological development has always been at the centre of his thinking. (Since it is a form of application of scientific knowledge.) After five years developing digital tools (mainly in C++), he turned his attention to providing support for these tools. Developing digital tools is good, but helping as many people as possible to understand their purpose and how to use them properly is important. He began the MaiaSpace adventure more than three years ago to set up an ideal digital environment to enable the company to be efficient and clear in its objectives. When AI (LLM) arrived, Antony negotiated the recruitment of Alexandre to prove the added value of LLMs in managing and accessing internal company information. Combining software craftsmanship with the popularisation of concepts associated with agility, he now has the impactful role he has long desired.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n \n

After more than 10 years of experience in the telecommunications sector with Hewlett-Packard, Simon decided in 2001 to develop a real-time communication solution to meet a personal need. There were few options available at the time, and those that did exist were often proprietary and inaccessible. With this in mind, he designed Linphone, an independently developed project with the ambition of offering an open source solution based on standard protocols. In 2010, he co-founded Belledonne Communications alongside Jehan Monnier to structure and develop this initial project. Today, Simon remains fully involved in the development of Linphone solutions, particularly the Liblinphone SDK, and the company.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n \n
