Théophile Delmas

Architecture, AI integration, privacy by design.

I help teams architect AI-powered products that are robust, ethical, and ready for regulation. Backend systems, AI integration, privacy-first infrastructure - with a philosophy background that shapes how I think about what technology should do.

Projects

About Me

About

I design and build the technical backbone of products - backend architecture, AI integration, infrastructure. I've set up campuses with 400 machines, built price transparency platforms, and architected marketplace systems from zero to production.

I studied philosophy at the Sorbonne before training as an engineer at 42 Paris. That combination shapes every architecture decision I make - especially around AI, privacy, and autonomy.

I work best at the early stage of projects, when the decisions that will matter most haven't been made yet. If you're integrating AI into a product and want someone who thinks beyond the API call, let's talk.
