    Cloud Solutions Architect
    September 2022 - January 2024 (1 year and 4 months)
    Levallois-Perret, France
    As a Cloud Architect, I joined a technical team tasked with assisting developers and AI engineers in designing and industrializing their Gen AI & ML projects on Azure. My role is to create the concept of an end-to-end GenAI platform on Azure, structuring the architecture around scalable and secure cloud services. We integrated Azure AI Search and OpenAI Service to optimize model management and improve performance via RAG. The platform relies on a vector database (Cosmos MongoVCore) optimized for knowledge management and advanced monitoring with Azure Monitor and App Insights. The infrastructure was industrialized with Terraform and Kubernetes, ensuring scalability, performance, and security for AI use cases.

    đŸ”č Key missions:
    • Definition & deployment of scalable architectures for Gen AI and ML projects on Azure
    • Industrialization of AI workflows with Kubernetes, Azure Machine Learning, and Terraform
    • Optimization of AI workload performance and costs with FinOps & GreenOps
    • Implementation of CI/CD pipelines integrating DevOps best practices for AI model deployment and management
    • Securing cloud environments with Azure Security Center, Defender for Cloud, and Entra ID
    • Data governance and management with Azure Databricks & Unity Catalog
