About me
Hello,
I am Benoît Vitoux, a French designer working since 2011 across ClimateTech, AgTech and MedTech. Over the past 14 years I have combined leadership and hands on design roles in startups and design agencies, building products and systems in complex hardware and software environments
I lived in China for 8 years (2009-2017) where I started in the consumer electronics goods industry and then transitioned to healthcare design, enabling me to develop user-centered solutions for healthcare professionals and patients.
As I worked for an American Healthcare design and innovation consultancy, I took the opportunity to be trained for a year as a human factor engineer, consulting for US and local firms for FDA/IEC 62366 certifications.
In 2017, I joined Infarm, a Berlin-based agritech startup, where I built a cross-functional team (~12ppl) of industrial, UX, and strategy designers, transferring my knowledge and methodologies in workflow design from surgical processes optimization to vertical farming operations.
As the Head of the R&D-Design department, I directed the design direction for hardware, softwares, and services, successfully building the world's largest network of vertical farms.
I currently work at Dryad Networks as Head of Design, where I define the design direction for an AI enabled IoT system for ultra early wildfire detection. This includes designing the digital tools to plan, deploy and monitor large scale mesh networks of sensors, as well as the industrial design of the hardware itself.
Have a great day !
Best regards,
Benoit Vitoux.
