Turn complex systems into engineered solutions
Senior Systems Engineering and MBSE expertise for ambitious aerospace programs. A trusted partner for the decisive phases of prime programs, and solid engineering foundations from day one for start-ups.
Who I work with
Whether you are scaling a flagship program or building a company, the goal is the same: systems that work, on time, with the evidence to prove it.
Plug in independent, senior expertise for a critical phase or review: a defensible requirements baseline, an MBSE deployment that finally sticks, or a proposal that has to win. In your tools and your processes, ready to be challenged.
Build on solid ground before complexity bites. Set up right-sized systems engineering, the appropriate level of MBSE, and a credible technical story, the kind that reassures investors and your first institutional customers.
Services
Senior, hands-on support tailored to the phase you’re in: shaping a concept, scaling MBSE, or preparing a bid.
From a blank page to a verified system. I cover it end to end: requirements definition & management, operational concept, functional and physical architecture, trade-off analysis and system-level IVVQ, with the documentation and risk management that keep reviews on track.
Make Model-Based Systems Engineering deliver, not just exist. I define the vision, tooling and governance so your model becomes the single source of truth, improving quality, traceability and project performance across the lifecycle.
Win the bids that matter. As an experienced technical peer, I sharpen your win themes, tighten compliance and traceability, and stress-test the proposal the way the customer will, so your strongest ideas actually land.
Approach
A pragmatic method that keeps the team focused on what the system must achieve, and turns documentation into a by-product of good engineering, not the goal.
Pin down the real need, the key and driving requirements, and the value at stake, so every decision traces back to what matters, and nothing is engineered for its own sake.
Put the right processes, artifacts and reviews in place, sized to your program: rigorous where it counts, never heavier than they need to be.
Establish configuration management that keeps baselines, changes and budgets consistent as the system and the team grow.
Experience
A systems engineer for nearly ten years on Europe’s flagship space and defense programs, Clément led the system architecture of ESA’s Argonaut lunar lander and shaped the MBSE deployment strategy of a leading space integrator. He has delivered projects, R&D studies and winning proposals across a wide spectrum: telecom satellites, lunar landers and transfer vehicles, crewed habitats, communication & navigation systems, building on experience developing RF products for the space segment.
Today he leads systems engineering on a major European naval program (€5B+, 800+ engineers), teaches Space Systems Engineering & MBSE at Master’s level (Université Toulouse III) and mentors European space start-ups. INCOSE CSEP certified, working in English, French and Italian.
