About Julien

With experience in project management, development, infrastructure management, and team leadership, I help your teams of 10 to 100 developers toaccelerate your software deliverythrough the formalization of standards and the development ofInternal Developer Platforms(IDP).

Instead of letting your teams re-develop their deployment workflows in a heterogeneous way (cognitive load, maintenance, vulnerabilities,...), I support you in **standardizing practices**: industrialized CI/CD, standardized environments, automation, self-service tools.

Result: exchanges with infra teams are smoother, your **deployments are faster and more reliable**, and more time and skills can be focused on the product.

Benefits:
• Reduction of manual tasks and recurring requests
• Faster, more reliable, more frequent deployments
• Simplified developer onboarding
• Better application of technical standards
• More time and skills for product development

Method:
Audit of the existing situation(CI/CD, infra, environments)
• Diagnosis of blocking points and opportunities for improvement
• Definition of a prioritized roadmap
Progressive implementation of the platform(self-service, GitOps, industrialized CI/CD)
• Skills transfer andteam support

I intervene on targeted improvements or on the complete construction of an internal platform.

Technologies: Kubernetes, Crossplane, ArgoCD, GitLab CI/CD, Terraform, Docker and open source cloud-native ecosystem.

My approach is pragmatic: identify the main blocking points, prioritize quick wins, and build solutions adapted to the real needs of the teams. The platform is an internal tool, and I use software development tools to develop it (MVP, agile method, ..).

    Docker & Kubernetes Training
    January 2024 - Today (2 years and 7 months)
    I support various teams (mainly research laboratories) in improving their Docker/Kubernetes skills through targeted 1 to 3-day training sessions.
    These training sessions allow them to understand the technology and to set up an action plan for a 'deep' appropriation of the tools.

    Training of developers and system administrators on Docker and Kubernetes.
    At the end of this mission, the different applications have an identical structure, the team is autonomous in the use of Docker, and the foundations are laid for the use of Kubernetes.

    Setup of a Kubernetes cluster for deploying the applications of a team of 10 developers.
    At the end of this technical and training mission, developers are autonomous in setting up their deployments and monitoring their applications through minimal git repositories on GitLab. Deployments that used to take months (ticket exchanges) and all had different structures now take a few hours and all have the same structure (simplified maintenance).
