I help companies and labs build, speed up and maintain the scientific software their R&D depends on. Trusted by industrial R&D teams. Invoices and contracts available.
Who I work with
- Pharma & biotech imaging teams
- Medical-imaging and neuroimaging companies
- Simulation, CAE and 3D software vendors
- Research labs and imaging core facilities
What I do
Custom imaging & data pipelines
- Diffusion MRI, microscopy/FLIM and 3D mesh processing pipelines
- Reproducible, tested and documented, so your team can own them
- Integration with your existing tools, storage and compute
Performance optimization
- Profiling to find the real bottlenecks
- Rewrites in Cython, SIMD or GPU where it matters, typically 10–100× faster
- Benchmarks before and after, on your own data
File formats & data conversion
- NIfTI, DICOM, GIFTI, tractography and 3D mesh formats
- Readers and writers for proprietary or vendor formats
- Mesh I/O with polyxios, validated on your files
Maintenance & support contracts
- Priority fixes and guaranteed response times
- Code review and architecture advice for internal tools
- Long-term support for code built on DIPY, FURY, polyxios and the scientific Python stack
How we can work together
- Audit: a fixed-price review of your pipeline or codebase, with a written report of performance and correctness issues and a prioritized plan.
- Sprint: one or two weeks on a well-defined goal, such as a speedup, a new format or a pipeline, at a fixed scope and price.
- Retainer: a monthly block of hours for ongoing development, support and code review.
How it works
- Intro call (30 min, free): you describe your data, your bottleneck and your timeline.
- Written scope & quote: clear deliverables, timeline and price, usually within a few days.
- Delivery & handover: code, tests, documentation and a walkthrough, so your team stays autonomous.
Why work with me
- 15+ years building scientific software, including 7 years of industrial R&D (Transvalor SA) and research at École des Mines ParisTech
- Lead maintainer and release manager of DIPY, release manager of FURY, creator of polyxios
- Patent holder in multiphoton imaging (FR2982369 / WO2013068943)
- Grantee of the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative EOSS program and the GitHub Secure Open Source Fund
- Speaker at ISMRM and OHBM
