Montréal (07110)2019 - maintenant- Support Product development for Rail and Aerospace Business Units
- Define System Engineering Processes for the development of Bombardier's future products.
- Proposed and ensured opening of a Fab Lab for Bombardier Advanced Technology Office. The Lab is now used to build and test key functions of scaled prototypes. Improves agility and visibility of the project.
- For an innovative product development:
-- act as Integration, Validation and Verification lead responsible to define the strategy and coordinate set-up of validation and verification capabilities (prototypes, virtual environment development platform....)
-- define product architecture of autonomous motion functions : environment sensing, navigation, guidance and control. Model Based Systems Engineering implementation of the architecture (Capella).
-- lead scaled prototype development (specification, architecture, physical design, fabrication and tests), road map and team organization.

Technique | Le Haillan (33185)2012 - 2016Responsible for the architecture of CMC components (turbine blades and shrouds) based on thermomechanical loads analysis, on experimental testing and on manufacturing constraints linked to composites materials.
Definition:
- Proposed integrated design of the components based on client needs (functions, life time expectancy, interfaces with the rest of the turbine), thermo-mechanical loadings, material properties and manufacturing constraints linked to composites materials
- Modeled and optimized designs to minimize internal loadings (finite element analysis). Deployed multi-scale thermo-mechanical modeling innovative tools and methods (collaboration with universities). The studies have led to the choice of concepts that best meet the pre-design criteria.
- Defined the technology demonstration strategy up to the product industrialization (Technology Readiness Level)
- Patented designs (three patents)
Manufacturing an Characterization:
- Supervised prototypes manufacturing. Defined corrective actions to maximize samples quality. Ensured efficient iterations between design and manufacturing teams.
- Identified the potential failure modes of the component and defined adapted testing (tests pyramid)
- Deployed mechanical and thermo-mechanical tests on prototypes. Worked on the correlation between experimental measurements and methods of simulation of the testing.
- As results, validated applied loads and testing representativeness compared to the model. Updated design assumptions with respect to the location and type of damages observed.
Project management
- Defined the technical road-map, objectives and timescale. Ensured reporting to clients and experts
- Coordinated a multi-skill and multi-site team. Managed several trainees.
Technique | Le Haillan (33185)2012 - 2012For CMC aeronautical turbine components designed and developed on engines :
- monitored first steps of the production of CMC blades and developped non destructive controls (CT – scans) for material quality control and improvement.
- designed and manipulated test campaign to identify the challenges of the blade forming at low cost.

ONERA - Laboratoire d'Etude des Microstructures
- Internship
2011 - 2011(8 months internship, part 2/2)
Study of the microstructure evolution at high temperature under creep-fatigue loading of a Ni-based superalloy used on aeronautical engines.
- Improved a phase field modeling of the microstructure evolution (anti-phase boundaries description)
- Observed experimentally the microstructure evolution after heat treatment (TEM / BEM)
- The numerical development added to the phase field modeling allowed to recover for the desired phenomena observed experimentally.
