Picard

Romain Picard is currently a data science engineer. He has been working in the digital TV and telecommunications industry for 20 years. His daily work consists of data manipulation, machine learning model training, and model deployment. Almost all of these tasks are based on Python code, and he uses reactive programming whenever it's applicable. He was previously a media software architect and a software developer. In these previous positions, he designed and developed TV and OTT players that have been used in tens of millions of set top boxes. Romain is especially interested in algorithms, looking for the most suitable algorithm for each use case.
