At CEA Paris-Saclay, a leading global research center, I contributed to the DSCIN team in the LECA laboratory, specializing in Electronic Design Automation (EDA) and hardware design, with a focus on advancing machine learning for hardware code generation.Key contributions include:• Developed LLM-based systems using QEMU to automate hardware architecture code generation in collaboration with the hardware design team.• Created a Python package using PyTorch and Transformers to benchmark multiple LLMs (Llama 3.1, Gemma 2, Codestral), managing over 1,000 daily tests on a GPU cluster.• Improved model performance through in-context learning and chain-of-thought prompting, boosting accuracy by 61%.• Launched an internal initiative to facilitate error handling by building a compilation error clustering tool.• Co-authoring a publication (in preparation) to present our evaluation methodology and results.

At TotalEnergies OneTech, the company’s innovation hub for energy technologies, I worked within the DATALAB team, a group dedicated to leveraging data science and machine learning to solve real-world challenges for the entire company. My role focused on enhancing Named Entity Recognition (NER) models and building LLM-based solutions to improve search technologies (research context).Key contributions include:• Benchmarked fine-tuning methods for NER using Large Language Models (LLMs) and BERT, improving extraction accuracy by 15% on real-world datasets.• Developed a proof of concept (POC) with LangChain and Llama2-13B using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to enhance Neural Search Engine solutions.• Deployed Llama2-13B/70B models on NVIDIA-DGX (A100) GPUs with CUDA/PyTorch, reducing inference time by 40%.

At Thales AVS, a leader in defense and aerospace technologies, I contributed to the development of critical software components for simulation systems, specifically for the Mirage 2000-C flight simulator. My role focused on real-time data acquisition to enhance simulation accuracy and performance.Key contributions include:• Integrated new hardware into the Mirage 2000-C flight simulator.• Developed real-time data acquisition modules in Java and Lua, ensuring precise data integration for the Mirage 2000-C flight simulator software.
