Summary

Founder and operator focused on career preparation and executive search in finance: Michael created AlumnEye (2012) to train and prepare candidates for Investment Banking, Market Finance and Strategy Consulting interviews, then extended that activity into AE Search — an executive search boutique advising PE/VC and portfolio companies on senior hires. alumneye+1
YC-backed product entrepreneur: In 2016 he co‑founded Hellobill, a startup to automate the retrieval and organisation of business PDF bills for accountants; the project was accepted into Y Combinator (Summer 2016) and is cited in multiple profiles about his entrepreneurial path. ycombinator+1
Educator and coach in finance: Michael has delivered finance instruction/interventions at ESSEC and built training products (PrepFinance) and large-scale interview prep programmes that AlumnEye provides to top schools and students preparing for finance/consulting roles. alumneye+2
Connector and angel investor in European tech and finance: public biographies and team pages describe him as an active business angel and connector with a network across Europe’s financial community, leveraging that network for recruitment and deal conversations (including hosting a podcast about dealmakers). ae-search+1
Paris-based entrepreneur with early finance experience: his early internships (Deloitte, Citadel) and ESSEC education underpin a profile that mixes transactional finance experience with product-building and recruiting expertise, centered in Paris. alumneye+1
