Alex Carlier is an AI and cloud engineer with 10 years of experience building production-grade generative AI platforms and high-performance ML systems, currently developing AI & GCP solutions at Eiffage from Paris. He has founded multiple startups (Reshot.AI, Litso) and led teams to deliver scalable services—most recently shipping a generative AI platform for 2,500+ employees integrating Gemini, Claude and Mistral. His research roots include a NeurIPS‑published DeepSVG model from ETH Zürich and internships at Meta AI and Amazon, demonstrating a strong bridge between cutting‑edge research and pragmatic engineering. He’s hands‑on across PyTorch, Terraform/GCP, C++→WASM pipelines and large-scale synthetic data generation, and has delivered browser NeRF renderers and encrypted tiny models for real‑time apps. A detail that sets him apart: he trained a dense face keypoint network from purely synthetic data that outperformed MediaPipe, showing expertise in simulation-driven ML.
