Louvain-La-Neuve, Walloon Region, Belgium

My main mission is to be a "bridge builder" and have end-to-end oversight of short and long-term projects:• Follow up and coordinate global project plans• Collaborate with different teams to ensure alignment• Keep a view on outlook and new trends

Louvain-La-Neuve

I definitely like to solve hardware challenges, which I experimented during my R&D period. I'm also interested in personal contact with our customers, so becoming FAE sounded obvious to me! My main role is to build a technical bridge between the customer, the development team, and the sales team.• I understand the technical requirements of our customers and suggest appropriate solutions • I help our customers to integrate our hardware IP-cores into their own design on FPGA • I define and follow development plans, together with R&D and sales teams

Louvain-La-Neuve

I joined the R&D team of intoPIX and its Agile approach after discovering the company during my internship. I like its young, creative and challenging spirit! • I developed and tested hardware modules for compression algorithms in VHDL, Vivado HLS and Catapult C• I analysed hardware architecture of TICO algorithm for FPGA

Louvain-La-Neuve

I did an internship as part of my master thesis: "JPEG 2000 Discrete Wavelet Transform optimized for FPGA: small footprint, low memory & improved image quality."• I generated a JPEG 2000 encoder and decoder with discrete wavelet transform using a new DSP primitive in order to reduce logic size (VHDL)• I simulated a new algorithm of discrete wavelet transform including a quantization step with OpenJPEG software (C language)
