Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPascal Voitot is an applied research engineer and scientist with 13 years of experience building and deploying deep learning systems, currently focusing on LLMs and multimodal models as well as computer vision for remote sensing at France’s national mapping agency. He blends research-grade model work (LLM fine-tuning, multimodal embeddings, panoptic segmentation, change detection and generative imagery) with production infrastructure expertise—Slurm, MLOps, Kubernetes and vector search (Weaviate/FAISS). Previously he led applied ML teams at Samsung SRI, shipping knowledge-grounded conversational agents, retrieval-augmented generation pipelines and domain-specific NLU, and co-authored a paper presented at ACL. A pragmatist with a functional-programming background, he also brings strong distributed systems skills (Akka, Kafka, Spark) and a history of open-source contributions to Play and Typelevel Cats. Based in Paris, he combines dataset annotation and cross-team coordination with hands-on modeling, and maintains a decade-long track record of bridging research, production engineering and community contributions.

Feb 2015 - Apr 2015
Lightweight, modular, and extensible library for functional programming.
Role in this project:
Back-end Developer

Contributions summary:Pascal contributed to the `cats` library, focusing on adding and refactoring instances for the `Show` typeclass, specifically for `String`, `Int`, `Byte`, `Char`, `Short`, `Long`, `Float`, `Double`, `Boolean`, and `Unit`. They also introduced instances for `BigInt` and `BigDecimal`, refactoring code to create a more consistent and functional approach to the library's typeclass implementations. A significant part of the work involved modifying existing code to improve the library's API and integrate with other parts of the Cats ecosystem.

Role in this project:Back-end Developer
Back-end DeveloperContributions:10 commits, 9 comments in 8 months
Contributions summary:Pascal primarily contributed to the `playframework/playframework` repository by modifying core JSON-related functionalities. They added a `prettyPrint` method for JSON formatting and refactored the code, incorporating `deepMerge` for improved JSON object merging. Furthermore, the user made changes related to functional combinators within the `play-functional` module, including moving the Constraints back to play core and refactoring the codebase to improve clarity. They addressed other bug fixes and performance improvements related to headers and cookies.
