About

I'm Fabien Freling: a software engineer and avid gamer.

2008 - EPITA

I am an EPITA alumni, promotion 2008. At the end of my studies, I decided to major in cognitive science and artificial intelligence.

At EPITA, I led the Mac association EpiMac, where I learnt how to use a Mac to do my UNIX projects and then how to leverage the awesomeness in Mac OS X technologies.

2008 - Internship in Princeton, New Jersey

I left for Princeton, New Jersey, to work for Siemens Corporate Research during my internship in computer graphics.

At the end of the year I went back to France, contributed a bit to Olena while working at IGR, graduated, and decided it was time to set sail again.

2010 - Oslo

In 2010 I moved to Oslo, Norway, to work as a Qt software engineer for Nokia with the great people of Trolltech.

But in the end, I decided Nokia's new direction with Windows Phone didn't suit me so I decided to fly back to France.

Damn I missed croissants.

2011 - Computer vision

In 2011 I had the chance to work on computer vision projects. I joined LTU technologies as a research engineer in Paris, France. I implemented exciting computer vision stuff (image matching, retrieval, etc), following the state of the art in the field. Unfortunately LTU shut down in 2015.

2015 - Camera software

In 2015 I joined DxO in Boulogne-Billancourt, France. I worked in the Camera Controls team on the DxO One. The goal was to deduced the best parameters to take a photo using automatic settings. It was my first time working on the firmware level and I learned a ton about photography.

2017 - Maps

In 2017 I joined Zenly. We made a social app with a strong focus on the map, putting the fun back in map apps.

2020 - Renewable energy

In 2020 I joined MoMA to work on the E6 project. I felt it was the right time to work on current matters such as energy.
