Summary
Jérôme Esnault is an R&D engineering manager specializing in platform and DevOps with 11+ years building immersive 3D simulation and virtual/augmented reality systems. He blends deep hands-on expertise in C++ and C# cross-platform development with strong practises around CI/CD, build tooling and source control (CMake, Git, Jenkins, TFVC). At ANSYS and now Synopsys he led teams delivering realtime VR kernels and drove the migration and industrialization of complex product pipelines while coaching agile delivery. His background spans research-to-product transfers (INRIA) and integrating novel input/HMD devices, showing a taste for prototyping bleeding-edge interfaces like Leap Motion and Oculus. Comfortable across architecture, release management and people leadership, he is particularly good at turning research prototypes into maintainable, continuously delivered products. Based in Valbonne, he combines technical curiosity with practical product stewardship across simulation and interactive visualization domains.
