Sébastien Orban
Design and delivery of cross-disciplinary systems — software, electronics, mechanics — for the problems standard solutions can't solve.
Approach
From specification to field deployment. Design, build, develop, integrate — one point of contact for the entire system.
Hard-to-reach environments, unusual constraints, needs that existing products don't address. That's precisely where a cross-disciplinary approach makes the difference.
Every system is designed to work in actual conditions — not a lab. Maintainability, robustness and adaptability are built in from day one.
Work
Robotics · Inspection
Remote-controlled system for exploring tunnels with potentially hazardous atmospheres. Eliminates human exposure in confined environments.
Robotics · Inspection
Remote-operated submarine for visual inspection of industrial tanks and basins. Mechanical design, embedded electronics and control system.
Monitoring · Environment
Flow rate, quality, hydrology. Sensor deployment, measurement vortices and data collection infrastructure for environmental monitoring.
Industry · Maintenance
On-site intervention and maintenance of measurement systems in classified industrial environments. Procedural rigour, field adaptability.
About
After nearly a decade as an IT consultant — product owner and project lead on complex infrastructures — I chose to work differently: designing and building complete systems, end to end, for needs nobody else knows how to address.
Software, electronics, mechanics, field work: I operate at the intersection of these disciplines because that's precisely where the interesting problems live.
Based in Belgium. On-site intervention available.

Describe your need — even roughly. If nobody else has been able to help, that's probably where I'm most useful.
