I’m Gaétan Vandenberghe. I find where AI can genuinely improve a process, build the system behind it, and make it dependable with validation, evaluation and human review.

02Principle

Reliable AI comes from the system around the model.

How I work

03Approach

Business context. Engineering detail.

I work between the business question and the technical answer: where AI can genuinely improve a process, the system behind it, and the people who need to trust it.

  1. 1

    Map the process first

    Who performs each step, which systems hold the data, where decisions are made and where errors enter. That map becomes the technical design.

  2. 2

    Constrain the output

    Ask the model for explicit structured output, and validate it against a schema before downstream code accepts the result.

  3. 3

    Evaluate, don’t guess

    Representative evaluation cases expose recurring failure modes and make prompt, model or pipeline changes comparable.

  4. 4

    Keep people in the loop

    Repair what’s clear, retry within bounds, and escalate ambiguous or consequential cases to a person with the context.

04Experience

06About

Boardroom to terminal.

I’m an AI engineer and advisor who learns by building. I’m drawn to difficult problems, especially where AI can make a business work smarter.

I want the result to be useful, understandable and worth adopting. I keep learning because the field moves quickly, and because I enjoy going deep into a new technical challenge and finding the practical path through it.

On the business side, that means AI strategy, advising management teams, process analysis and AI education. On the technical side: model fine-tuning, multimodal AI, system evaluation, production integration and full-stack applications.
