ABOUT JEAN VIANNEY
I’m a product‑focused engineering leader with experience across AI, autonomous systems, and customer‑centric product development. My background spans founding a health‑tech AI startup, leading cross‑functional teams, and building solutions that sit at the intersection of user needs, data, and technical feasibility.As the Co‑Founder & CEO of Yuko AI, I led product discovery, user interviews, competitive research, and MVP definition—translating complex, frontline healthcare problems into solutions powered by AI. I owned the roadmap, defined KPIs, and partnered with NGOs and frontline teams to validate early adoption and drive product iterations.At Hexagon, I work closely with OEM customers, engineering teams, and field operations to identify high‑impact problems, and guide the delivery of reliable, data‑informed solutions for autonomy in agriculture. My work includes breaking down ambiguous customer issues, conducting telemetry‑driven root‑cause investigations, and contributing to shaping and review of Concepts of Operations and stakeholder specifications for new initiatives.Previously, I led engineering for the WATonoBUS autonomous shuttle (20‑person team), where I owned testing frameworks, integration plans, system validation, and real‑time telematics development.Across all roles, I thrive in ambiguous environments, enjoy working with cross‑functional partners, and bring a structured, analytical mindset to building products users genuinely value.I’m energized by roles where product, engineering, and user empathy intersect—and where I can help build products that deeply solve user problems.
