To do this, we are looking for a Senior AI Consultant (or similar profile) who knows how to put an AI strategic vision in place with hands-on technical depth.

• Define and shape our AI vision & strategy while staying deeply connected to data.
• Translate complex business needs into clear actionable AI roadmaps.
• Partner with scientists (Bioinformaticians), engineers, and leadership to ensure data is structured, stored, and leveraged effectively.
• Build from scratch: lead the journey from data foundations to impactful AI-driven insights.
• Act as an internal expert and sparring partner for our leadership while collaborating closely with the data science team.

What You’ll Do :

• Evaluate our current data landscape and design the future AI / ML roadmap.
• Work hands-on with data: cleaning, structuring, collaborating, building prototypes, and validating models.
• Advise on best practices in data storage, annotation, and model development.
• Mentor and elevate other team members, bringing a strategic layer to ongoing projects across the company.
• Serve as the bridge between scientific teams and the business, ensuring AI solutions solve real problems.

Requirements

What We’re Looking For :

• 8+ years experience in AI / Data Science roles, including building AI initiatives / navigating AI-first strategies from scratch in a company.
• Deep strength in mathematics, statistics, and machine learning fundamentals.
• Proven ability to balance strategic leadership with hands-on delivery.
• Excellent collaborator, communicator, and problem-solver.
• Comfortable working in dynamic, evolving environments where the AI strategy is still being defined.
• (Bonus) Background in biotech, life sciences, or related fields is welcome but not required.
• Strong team player; start-up mindset.
• Fluent in French and English.

Benefits

• Shape the AI strategy at its inception for a growing biotech leader.
• Work alongside passionate scientists and engineers in a collaborative environment.
• Be the go-to AI expert, bringing clarity and vision where it matters most.
• Hybrid flexibility after the initial integration period (Lyon-based role).
• Company benefits
