Summary
Manuel Ruiz is an expert in decision support and operations research with 11 years of experience applying advanced optimization to industrial problems, currently leading R&D studies and serving as Expert Confirmé en Aide à la Décision at RTE. He holds an engineering degree and a research master, completed a CIFRE PhD on an industrial optimization engine for food manufacturing, and built a global optimization solver for large-scale bilinear problems. Manuel has a strong software toolbox (C, C++, Java, Matlab, Linux) and a track record as a consultant at Artelys delivering production-ready optimization modules for planning and scheduling use cases. His projects span from developing an exact classification app via column generation at GERAD to an SNCF scheduling module for ultrasonic inspection fleets, showing both theoretical depth and practical deployment. Colleagues value his ability to carry projects end-to-end—from modeling complex combinatorial problems to shipping robust software—bridging research and industrial impact.
