About

I’m a Senior R&D Engineer with a PhD in Computational Mechanics from École des Mines de Paris 🎓. I build high-performance web systems that connect advanced computational science with practical engineering workflows. My work focuses on graphics rendering, parallel simulation automation, and intuitive visualization tools for real-world use. Alongside my R&D role, I create developer tools and cloud platforms 🚀, including the visualization engines VU and VU-VERSE, the serverless platform AntiNode with its amAIra AI proxy, and the AI-native media system ABR-INSIGHTS. My mission 🛠️ is to remove infrastructure friction, protect data, and deliver tools that make development faster and more intuitive.

Scenaven - Simulation science on the server. 3D on the web

Scenaven is a hybrid 3D visualization app for engineering simulation data. VTK handles meshes, fields, filters, and time on the server; OpenUSD carries the scene to the browser; Three.js renders it with WebGL or optional WebGPU. Powered by AntiNode, Scenaven adds secure login, an AI assistant, and a server-side Python shell. Run the same stack in the cloud or on-prem.

🚀 Agentic Workflows are now live on Antinode

I just shipped a major upgrade to amAIra, Antinode's embeddable AI chat.

The goal is simple: your in-app copilot shouldn't just talk about your product it should actually be able to use it.

VU-VERSE - Free web visualization for VTKHDF time series data

VU-VERSE is a unified visualization platform for exploring VTK HDF time-series datasets using Visualization Toolkit and its vtkHDF format. The platform is built around cross-platform parity: the same UI layer, interaction model, and VTK rendering pipeline are shared across native and WebAssembly builds.
