AI That Ships
Your AI Initiative Is Stuck.
I Fix That.
Most AI projects never make it past the demo. I help European companies ship AI that actually works—from strategy through production deployment. In boardrooms and on factory floors.
I don't stop at PowerPoint. I ship.

The Difference in One Line
Most consultants deliver decks. I deliver working systems.
At McKinsey, the engagement ends with a 300-slide strategy. At Hyperion, it ends with code in production. I've been on both sides—and I know which one actually moves the needle.
Strategy + Execution. Not Strategy → Handoff.
The Reality
Sound Familiar?
Your AI pilot has been "almost ready" for 18 months
The demo was impressive. Leadership was bought in. Then... nothing. You're stuck in what McKinsey calls 'pilot purgatory'—and 2026 is the year your board stops accepting 'we're still experimenting.'
You're drowning in AI vendor pitches
Everyone claims to have AI. Your inbox is full of demos. Your team has strong opinions about ChatGPT. But nobody agrees on what your AI strategy should actually be.
Your RAG system works in demos, fails in production
The proof-of-concept looked great. Then real users arrived. Hallucinations. Latency issues. Costs spiraling. The gap between 'AI demo' and 'AI production' is bigger than anyone told you.
August 2026 is coming—and you're not ready
EU AI Act high-risk requirements take effect in 7 months. Fines reach €35 million or 7% of turnover. You don't even know which of your AI systems are classified as high-risk.
70% of AI pilots never reach production. I help you be the 30% that ships.
Your Challenges
What's Blocking Your AI?
Every AI challenge has a solution. Find yours.
The Method
The DEPLOY Method™
Most AI initiatives fail at the transition from pilot to production. The DEPLOY Method is built on 15 years of shipping AI at Cisco, Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi, and ABB—organizations where 'pilot' isn't a permanent state and 'production' isn't optional.
Diagnose
Before prescribing solutions, I diagnose the real problem. Most AI initiatives fail not because of technology, but because of unclear objectives, misalignment, or unrealistic expectations.
Engineer
I design solutions that work in production—not just demos. Build-vs-buy decisions, architecture that scales, security and governance from day one.
Pilot
I test fast, learn fast, iterate fast—but always with a clear path to production. Every pilot has graduation criteria. 'Permanent experiment' isn't in my vocabulary.
Launch
I ship. Real users, real data, real traffic. This is where most AI consultancies disappear. It's where I focus.
Optimize
Production is the beginning. I build systems for continuous improvement—evaluation frameworks, feedback loops, and processes to get better over time.
Yield
I measure business impact and transfer capability. The goal is to leave you stronger, not dependent. Your team learns. Your organization improves.
What I Help You Avoid
These common pitfalls derail 70% of AI projects. My methodology prevents them.
Pilot Purgatory
“Impressive demos that never reach production.”
I design pilots with clear graduation criteria from day one.
Demo-Quality Architecture
“Systems that break under real-world load.”
I build for production requirements from the start.
Consultant Dependency
“Can't operate without external help.”
I transfer capability. You end up stronger, not dependent.
Compliance Scramble
“Panic before enforcement deadlines.”
I build governance in from day one, not bolted on later.

The Hyperion Difference
Full-Stack AI: Strategy to Code
Most AI consultants either advise or build. I do both. From executive AI strategy to production RAG systems, one partner handles your entire AI journey. That's not common—and it's why clients choose to work with me.
01
Strategy
I've Shaped the Roadmap
- Forbes Technology Council Member
- French Government AI Ambassador
- Berkeley SkyDeck Advisor
- 30+ startups mentored on AI strategy
“I understand that AI transformation projects live or die based on business metrics. I design initiatives that tie directly to revenue and competitive advantage.”
02
Product
I've Owned the P&L
- Deputy GM at Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance
- €75M+ program budgets managed
- Connected services for 4M+ users across 39 countries
- World's first Google-built-in head unit
“I've sat in the executive chair, owning budgets and leading cross-functional teams. I know what stakeholder alignment and organizational change actually require.”
03
Code
I've Built the Systems
- Auralink: 302+ microservices, 31 AI models in 2 months
- RAG systems, fine-tuning, open source LLM deployment
- Production systems at Cisco scale (100M+ users)
- Deep expertise across the modern AI stack
“I don't just advise on technology—I build it. This engineering depth means I can evaluate technical feasibility and speak the language of your development teams.”
04
Transformation
I've Led the Shift
- Software-Defined Vehicle at Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi
- Software-Defined Power strategy at Schneider Electric
- Software-Defined Charging with AuraLinkOS
- 3 industries transformed with same methodology
“I don't just advise on becoming software-defined—I've done the transformation myself, repeatedly. I know where the hidden obstacles are because I've hit them.”
This 360° perspective—plus hands-on transformation experience—means I can translate between technical possibilities and business realities in ways that pure technologists or pure consultants can't.
Why Hyperion
Not Your Typical AI Consultant
Senior expertise without consultancy overhead. Vendor-agnostic guidance. AI that actually ships.
15+
Years Enterprise AI
Senior Expertise, Direct
You work with me—not a junior team supervised by a partner who shows up for presentations. Every hour is senior expertise: Cisco, Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi, ABB. Forbes Technology Council. The work doesn't get delegated.
302+
Microservices
Full Stack: Strategy to Code
Most consultants advise. I also build. I built Auralink—302+ microservices, 31 AI models—in 2 months. From AI strategy presentations to production RAG systems, one partner handles everything.
€0
Vendor Kickbacks
Vendor-Agnostic
No partnerships. No kickbacks. No bias. When I recommend open source over proprietary, or build over buy, it's because that's right for you—not because I have a commercial relationship.
100%
Capability Transfer
Independence, Not Dependency
My goal is to work myself out of a job. Every engagement includes knowledge transfer, documentation, and training. You end up stronger, not reliant on external help forever.
Proof, Not Promises
I built Auralink—302+ microservices, 31 AI models, 1M+ lines of production code—in 2 months. That's the difference between advising on AI and building AI.
