I am a distributed systems engineer and Associate Professor at ISAE-SUPAERO, specializing in fault-tolerant storage and transport architectures, with 15+ years of experience spanning both research and industry. My work is grounded in erasure coding, a mathematical technique that enables reliable data reconstruction under partial loss, applicable to both storage systems and network protocols.

I co-authored RFC 9407 (IETF), defining a real-time network coding protocol (Tetrys) that was commercially transferred to a global CDN leader. I also co-founded Speeryt, a deep-tech startup commercializing erasure coding IP.

My recent work focuses on verifiable distributed storage, combining erasure coding with cryptographic proof systems (polynomial commitments and zero-knowledge proofs) to build storage architectures where data integrity can be mathematically guaranteed.

Research Interests :

Erasure Coding : distributed storage and reliable transport
Verifiable Distributed Storage (FEC + cryptographic proofs)
Applied Cryptography : zero-knowledge proofs, polynomial commitments
Peer-to-peer architectures and decentralized systems

Teaching :

Algorithm and Computing (Master's Program)
Responsible for the design and delivery of this module, focusing on algorithmic principles and practical programming skills.
Advanced Cryptography (FISE)
Introduction to zero-knowledge proofs with Circom, exploring the foundations of modern cryptographic practices.
Software Engineering Fundamentals
C programming, software tooling (Git, Bash, terminal)
