Romain Goussault is a Senior AI Engineer based in Nantes with 12 years of experience building ML-driven products at the intersection of research, healthcare, and industry. He has moved between hands-on engineering and product leadership—shaping and shipping Substra, an open-source federated learning platform, while later developing LLM-powered drug discovery tools at Owkin and now driving AI work at Inato. His background spans applied research (wind prediction, battery estimation), healthcare ML for skin cancer, and early-career robotics/control projects, giving him a pragmatic systems view from algorithms to deployment. He combines academic teaching experience with nonprofit governance through Labelia Labs, reflecting a commitment to trustworthy data science and capacity building. Colleagues know him for translating complex science into product strategy and for bridging technical depth with stakeholder-facing roles. Fluent in both research thinking and product delivery, he often focuses on privacy-preserving ML and real-world impact rather than pure model benchmarks.
