Work experience
2003 - 2006 PhD Thesis in the industrial engineering lab of the École des Mines d'Albi. We led researchs upon decision support and constraint programming. We developped a configurator prototype (with Perl) to evaluate our researchs. I managed this three-years project.
2003 Engineer (analyst and programer) at the CERIT -- computing part of the MAAPAR (french department of agriculture). I developped a prototype for the statistic survey of learning adults in schools of this ministry. With PowerBuilder, this application is a combination of a Web part for data capture and a heavy client part for results exploitation.
2002 Three month as an engineer at RECIF. I took part in an integration project of ProductView, a technical data visualisation software. I analysed the uses, defined the several parameters and trained the users and superusers.
2001 Four month as IT technician at O.I.Tech. -- aluminium joinery. I finished the production management tool : an Access database.
2000 One month as a technician at the SOGEREM -- feldspar mining. I updated the air plans and made balance sheets of air flows in the galleries.
1999 One month at DRIMM SA -- sort center. I sorted papers and non-organic waste.
1994 - 2000 casual works including grape gathering, gardening, groom and guide for horse riding excursions
