Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

JEE developer/architect for 7 years for a large IT consulting firm; I have been contributing/coordinating as a technical leader/solutions architect/cross-functional team lead for IT migration, evolution, or transformation projects for eighteen years.

Clearly results-oriented and focused on continuous improvement, with strong involvement in my assignments, I have worked in very diverse sectors (software publisher, industry, transport, music, hospitality, finance, and telecom) on complex environments where availability and performance were critical.

Adaptable and rigorous, I can, thanks to my interpersonal skills and architectural expertise, collaborate/coordinate multidisciplinary teams (business, urban planning, network, security, operations, delivery) to serve a common goal.

A builder at heart and a bit of a perfectionist, I like to follow my projects from needs analysis to post-production support to ensure quality support for my clients by leveraging best practices, which I use pragmatically.

With active listening and pedagogical skills, I can synthesize and communicate business or technical issues orally and in writing, and confront them with reality through impact analyses, proofs of concept (POCs), competitive/technological watch, taking market trends into account.
