Freelancer profile translated to English.
Back to original languageAbout Damien
With solid experience in network infrastructure and cybersecurity, I assist companies with their one-off or recurring technical projects, from the operator network core to the end-user workstation:
Operator Network & WAN: implementation of MPLS/SD-WAN/SASE architectures, routing optimization, management and negotiation with telecom operators
Perimeter Security: deployment and configuration of firewalls, segmentation, site-to-site VPN
LAN Infrastructure: design and deployment of switching architectures (core/distribution/access), VLAN segmentation, access security (802.1X/NAC), enterprise Wi-Fi deployment and optimization, cabling and architecture documentation.
My added value: in-depth knowledge of the operator world (Bouygues, Orange, SFR, local authorities, etc.), which is rare among purely "client infrastructure" consultants, allowing me to bridge the gap between internal technical teams, LAN infrastructure, and carrier contacts. An end-to-end vision, from WAN to the network socket.
I am available for both short, targeted assignments (audits, deployments, architecture reviews) and more regular part-time support.

My approach always begins with understanding the existing situation before making proposals.Three areas:• Network consulting & architecture• Cybersecurity: next-generation firewalls, VPN, SASE / SD-WAN• End-to-end engineering & managed services
