Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

For over 20 years now, I've been immersed in the world of infrastructure.

My strengths:

- Automating repetitive tasks as much as possible to focus on value-added tasks

- Having the broadest possible view of my client's needs to find the most suitable solutions. Not just for the current project but also for the company in general to avoid redundancy of solutions performing the same function.

My skills are mainly in the Windows environment, but I also have knowledge of Linux/Unix systems.

I also manage:

- VMWare infrastructures for over 15 years

- Fortinet products for over 10 years (Fortigate, Fortimanager, FortiAnalyzer, Fortimail, FortiWeb, etc.)

In recent years, I have contributed to major projects, including several Hybrid migrations to Microsoft Azure.
