Short Bio
I am the head of engineering at the Astronomy Department of the University of Geneva. I also serve as systems engineer and project lead in various cutting-edge astronomical instrumentation project. Since 2021, I am the project manager of SPHERE+/SAXO+, an ambitious upgrade of the SPHERE instrument at the ESO VLT, project manager of the "NIR fibers" work package of the MOSAIC instrument for the ELT. Since 2015 I am the systems engineer of NIRPS, an adaptive optics assisted designed to look for small mass planets in the habitable zone of M dwarf stars on the 3.6m ESO telescope. This is an effort funded partly by the NCCR PlanetS program. NIRPS is in the commissionning phase and the start of operations is scheduled for April 2023.
From 2011 to 2019 I have been involved in the CHEOPS satellite project, where I lead two work packages related to the calibration and verification of the payload performance.
Until 2014 I worked as system engineer in charge of system integration of the SPHERE instrument for the VLT, and in charge of the SPHERE calibration module.
I am also involved in the development of different techniques for the high accuracy calibration of spectrogaphs. NIRPS, HARPS, HARPS-N, CORALIE, and SPIROU to name a few.
Formerly ('99 to '03), I was at the Steward Observatory, University of Arizona, as the lead engineer of the adaptive optics system for the 6.5 meter MMT telescope,putting the world's first adaptive secondary-based AO on the sky.
