About Ely

Specialist in designing scalable data architectures capable of processing millions of events in production. I support major clients (EDF, GEODIS) in their Big Data transformations: cloud migrations, real-time platforms, security & GDPR compliance.

My approach -> Optimize every link in the data chain to ensure performance, resilience, and data integrity.

Certified AWS, Azure, Dataiku, Snowflake, Kubernetes, and Google, I am a proponent of continuous learning.

Sectors of intervention: Energy/Nuclear, Logistics, Regulated Industries

Available for long-term assignments (6+ months) or strategic consulting on scalability challenges and production infrastructure optimization.

    Data Engineer - NiFi Expert
    ENERGY AND UTILITIES
    October 2025 - Today (10 months)
    Bordeaux, France
    Context:
    Migration of millions of sensitive metadata and documents in a regulated environment with strict security constraints.

    Achievements:
    >Led the migration of millions of critical metadata and documents from Oracle (PL/SQL) to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL via Apache NiFi and Kafka
    >Developed advanced ETL (SQL/Python/Groovy) to process complex and sensitive data structures
    >Implemented anonymization and pseudonymization processes for sensitive data in compliance with sector security requirements
    >Improved migration throughput (x2) by tuning NiFi clusters
    >Monitored AWS infrastructure (ECS Fargate) and maintained operational condition (MCO) via CloudWatch
    >Automated CI/CD (GitLab) and managed Infrastructure as Code (Terraform/Terragrunt) to ensure traceability and reproducibility
    >Migrated the Nuxeo DMS platform to AWS with secure management of binaries (S3) and metadata (PostgreSQL)

    ▶Result:
    >Migration of five major units with 0 data loss
    >100% production availability maintained
    >Full compliance with sector security standards.

    August 2023 - September 2025 (2 years and 1 month)
    Levallois-Perret, France
    Context:
    Design and industrialization of a real-time Big Data platform for IT monitoring and governance of sensitive data (HR/Finance) with security and GDPR compliance constraints.

    Achievements:
    Big Data Architecture & Real-time Ingestion:
    >Set up real-time ingestion and transformation flows (NiFi, Kafka, Spark) to process several million daily events
    >Multi-level data architecture (Raw → Clean → Functional) on Apache Iceberg/Hive tables to optimize versioning and performance
    >Capture and streaming of +20 API flows via Kafka with distributed storage on Cloudera Data Platform
    >Developed semantic enrichment and cleaning pipelines under Dataiku DSS

    Security & GDPR Compliance:
    >Implemented a dynamic Row Level Security (RLS) engine under PySpark integrating Azure AD for multi-axis access control
    >Set up systematic anonymization and pseudonymization processes for sensitive HR/Finance data in pipelines
    >Automated mapping of individual accesses via Azure AD and LDAP for complete traceability
    >Automated extraction solution via Azure Functions (Python) with secure storage on Azure SQL

    DevOps & Automation:
    >Complete deployment automation (Spark jobs, Airflow DAGs) via Ansible and Azure DevOps on 4 environments (Dev/UAT/Test/Prod)
    >Infrastructure portability ensuring deployment reproducibility

    ▶Results:
    >50% reduction in average IT incident resolution time through improved monitoring
    >20% savings on Power BI license costs (automatic detection of inactive accounts)
    >100% GDPR compliance on sensitive HR/Finance reports
    >Significant productivity gain for the administration team.
