About Célestin

Independent DevOps system administrator specializing in Linux infrastructure, I deploy and migrate systems using Ansible to GCP, AWS, and internal infrastructures, ensuring automation, traceability, and documentation.

I improve system resilience through monitoring, redundancy, and automated redeployment. I also enjoy the challenge of modernizing and documenting legacy infrastructures.

With an engineering degree, a PhD in computer science (privacy/network), and over 10 years of experience in Linux infrastructure maintenance, I work autonomously and efficiently in international environments. I have been a full-time system administrator for 5 years.

Services:
  • infrastructure automation,
  • system monitoring,
  • backup and disaster recovery strategies,
  • cloud migration,
  • service setup (web, mail, videoconferencing, VPN, etc.),
  • infrastructure modernization,
  • CI/CD pipeline design and implementation,
  • maintenance,
  • SSL/TLS certificate management.

Open to other projects.

Skills:
  • DevOps & CI/CD: Ansible, Docker, Git, Gitlab CI/CD, Bash
  • Cloud: GCP, AWS, OVH, Gandi
  • Operating systems: Linux (Debian, Arch Linux, Ubuntu, CentOS)
  • Web servers & databases: Apache, NGINX, PostgreSQL, MariaDB
  • Monitoring & virtualization: Nagios, vSphere
  • Mail infrastructure: Postfix, Exim, Dovecot, SPF/DKIM/DMARC configuration
