Summary
Laurent Boutigny is an optronics and digital electronics engineer with 8 years of experience, currently CTO and co-founder of Deverne where he designs bespoke embedded vision and Edge AI systems. He has a strong FPGA pedigree from roles at Thales and Photospace and hands-on experience building hardware accelerators for intensive processing and night-vision and sovereign security solutions. His work spans mobility and urbanism (augmented cameras, Edge AI) to semiconductor accelerators, combining algorithmic insight with production-grade firmware and FPGA design. Notably he contributed to an operational CubeSat firmware during an R&D placement and maintains open resources such as the TinyML-Zybo repo to demonstrate applied TinyML on FPGA platforms. Based in Versailles, he blends startup leadership with deep technical execution, able to take concepts from prototype to deployed systems. His profile reflects a pragmatic innovator who favors hardware-software co-design for constrained, safety- or security-critical applications.
