Théo Matussière

👋 Hi, my name is Théo!

I'm an engineer living in Paris 🇫🇷 with a training in mathematics and machine learning. Since my graduation from École polytechnique I have worked as a research engineer at Facebook AI Research, Nabla & HuggingFace. At Nabla, where I stayed for a bit less than three years, I've learnt generalist software engineering and taken a taste for product-oriented engineering.

I've left Nabla in 2021 to work on my own startup, talkiewalkie - and closed that chapter in december 2022 after a wild, wild year. Since TalkieWalkie's failure I've worked on a couple of tiny projects, including scorrilo and began looking to join existing teams in product capacity.

I'm currently working as a freelancer - but it's not a setting that fulfills me and I'm looking to join cool, small and ambitious teams working with strong product ideas.

Things I'm looking for in my next job:

1. trust, earnestness and kindness,
2. close to the product and its users,
3. an impactful position mixing engineering and (product or management)

Things that I can do or have done:

• lead state of the art research in NLP - from framing the questions to planning and executing experiences,
• develop user facing experiences in web and mobile,
• manage back-end operations,
• a-to-z development and shipping of NLP features in production,
• user research & interviews,
• lead small teams,
• recruit and onboard new team members,
• product ownership
