Skyld Strengthens Its Tech Team with Two New Expert Hires

Skyld continues to expand its technical expertise with the addition of two new team members: Romain Petitalot, a Security Engineer and graduate of INSA Rouen; and Nathan Ramoly, a PhD in computer science/AI from the Paris-Saclay University and a Machine Learning Research Engineer.

These strategic hires strengthen Skyld’s ability to design cutting-edge solutions for AI security, and embedded AI protection, at a time when securing AI systems is becoming crucial.


Strengthening Security Engineering Expertise

As a Security Engineer, Romain Petitalot has extensive experience in cybersecurity, embedded systems, and software development.

His experience covers:

  • Integrating security into embedded systems
  • Hardening operating systems
  • Developing security tools strengthening Skyld’s approach to secure AI systems by design.

His expertise in technical security and systems engineering allows Skyld to build resilient solutions and address the risks associated with deploying edge AI systems.


Advanced Research in Machine Learning Security

Nathan Ramoly, PhD, joins Skyld as a Machine Learning Research Engineer, strengthening its AI research capabilities at the heart of its technology.

His role involves:

  • Developing state-of-the-art methods for protecting AI models, including LLMs
  • Improving robustness against AI reverse engineering
  • Reconciling cutting-edge research with real-world deployment constraints.

This position is crucial, as Skyld continues to develop a new category of security for embedded AI, where protecting the model itself becomes as important as securing the infrastructure.


Supporting the Growth of Secure Embedded AI

With these new hires, Skyld continues to expand its capabilities to:

  • Protect AI models deployed on devices and on-premises
  • Secure intellectual property at the network at the edge
  • Ensure the reliability and integrity of AI systems
