After taking his first steps as a Data Scientist 8 years ago, and collecting a few medals in Machine Learning competitions, Aurélien Massiot gradually became interested in all areas related to Data Science: software craftsmanship, ops, methodology… For more than 6 years at OCTO Technology, he has supported and trained his clients on MLOps and data architecture. Aurélien also mentored OCTO’s Data & AI graduate program. He likes to transmit and disseminate the fruit of his research, whatever the medium: training, feedback or articles. Simplicity, a true leitmotif in accordance with his convictions, naturally permeates his sharing.
