About Romain

Former mechanical engineer (MSc), I specialised in applied mathematics (PhD) — I help companies solve complex technical problems where simulation, computation, and engineering meet.

With several years of experience in numerical modelling and scientific software development — through both a PhD at CEA and my current postdoctoral research at the University of Basel — I work with engineering teams, R&D departments, and industrial partners to turn difficult technical challenges into practical, reliable solutions.

Beyond scientific computing, I also help businesses of all kinds automate repetitive or time-consuming tasks using AI, and validate AI-generated or AI-assisted results — simulations, calculations, technical specs, or any other output — before they inform critical decisions.

Whether it is developing custom numerical solvers, improving simulation workflows, accelerating legacy scientific code, analysing complex datasets, automating business processes with AI, or auditing AI-assisted work, I provide both strategic insight and hands-on execution.

Available for part-time consulting, technical collaborations, and high-value problem-solving assignments — on-site in the Greater Basel Area or fully remote.

Experience

  • Freelance client
    Portfolio Tracking & Stock Screening Desktop Application
    February 2026 - May 2026 (3 months)
    Developed a desktop application for individual investors to track and manage their stock portfolio, for a freelance client.

    The application includes a custom-built charting engine inspired by TradingView, allowing users to visualise price action and portfolio performance directly within the tool. It also integrates an AI-powered chart analysis feature, built on Ollama, to provide automated technical insights on selected stocks.

    A dedicated screener module identifies small-cap stocks showing signs of a trend reversal, helping users surface investment opportunities that would otherwise require manual chart-by-chart review.
    This project combined custom data visualisation, local AI model integration, and financial data processing into a single coherent desktop tool.
