À propos de Camille
Ingénieur mécanique et CTO à la demande, j'accompagne les entreprises hardware de la conception à la production de masse.
Au sein de Yucca Lab, l'agence hardware que je co-anime, je prends en charge l'ingénierie mécanique, l'industrialisation et la direction technique de produits physiques complexes, des dispositifs médicaux aux objets connectés.
J'interviens sur l'ensemble de la chaîne : architecture mécanique, conception pour la fabrication (DFM), prototypage, sélection des fournisseurs et montée en cadence. Mon approche associe rigueur d'ingénierie et faisabilité industrielle dès le premier jour, pour transformer des concepts ambitieux en produits manufacturables et fiables.
Mon credo : un beau produit doit aussi être fabricable, dès le premier croquis.

Expériences
- YUCCA labFractional CTO (Hardware) & Mechanical Engineeravril 2021 - Aujourd'hui (5 ans et 2 mois)Hardware is hard.Most startups don’t fail because of their idea, they fail when transitioning from prototype to industrialization.We help hardware startups bridge that gap.I act as a Fractional CTO for hardware startups, helping teams turn ambitious concepts into production-ready, scalable products.What makes our approach different:We bridge industrial design, engineering, and manufacturing from day one — eliminating the classic “design vs engineering vs factory” disconnect.Over the past 10+ years, I’ve:• Designed and industrialized complex hardware systems (medtech, ocean tech, IoT)• Led full product lifecycles: concept → prototype → certification → mass production• Built robust products for real-world constraints (harsh environments, autonomy, reliability)• Structured supply chains and managed industrial partners (EU & Asia)• Reduced costly redesign loops by integrating DFM/DFA early in the processAt Yucca Lab, we operate as an end-to-end hardware partner, combining:• Industrial design (user-centric, sustainable, feasible)• Rapid prototyping & iterative validation• Advanced engineering (mechanical, embedded, system architecture)• Industrialization & production ramp-upThis integrated approach significantly reduces time-to-market and industrial risk.What I help startups with:• Product & system architecture• Prototype → industrialization transition• DFM / DFA / DTC (design for cost)• Rapid prototyping strategy & iteration loops• Supplier sourcing & manufacturing setup• Certification (CE, ISO13485…)• Technical leadership & team structuringTypical situations where I add the most value:• You have a prototype - but scaling to production feels risky• Your product was designed without industrial constraints in mind• You need senior technical leadership, but not full-time• You want to avoid costly redesigns at factory stageAvailable for:• Fractional CTO roles• Advisory• End-to-end hardware programs
