About Loic

Independent since 2022, I have specialized in Keycloak.

Throughout my assignments, I have designed and deployed authentication solutions used by over 40 applications and several million accounts. Concerned with performance and robustness, I systematically integrate these requirements into my technical choices.

I am involved in all aspects related to Keycloak: identity federation, role strategy, OAuth2/OIDC security, front-end and back-end integration, governance, best practices, etc.

Curious and versatile, I also have a solid full-stack background (Java / Spring Boot, React), infrastructure, and CI/CD.
I favor simple communication, teamwork, and a good dose of pragmatism.

Experience

    Expert Keycloak / IAM Architect
    SPORTS
    February 2022 - January 2025 (2 years and 11 months)
    Boulogne-Billancourt, France
    The French Tennis Federation (FFT) has a large portfolio of applications enabling:
    • The organization of international tournaments Roland Garros and Rolex Paris Masters (ticket sales, access control/catering, player applications, etc.)
    • Licensed players to book courts and register for matches
    • Clubs to manage their daily operations

    As a tech lead and Keycloak expert, I began my assignment by **implementing a single authentication solution**. This solution, based on **Keycloak / React / Spring Boot**, allows the FFT to have a unified login and account creation process for all its applications.

    The FFT's identity and account management (IAM) includes, in addition to Keycloak, numerous modules such asSpring Boot microservices**, a **Kafkaevent bus, and **AWS lambdas**. This central system, consumed by over 40 applications and containing several million accounts, is crucial for the federation as it centralizes all user data. During my assignment, I was responsible for this module, including its design, production deployment, and monitoring.

    Thanks to my involvement in this project, I joined the FFT'sapplication architecture teamin mid-2023. My role evolved to include the following tasks:
    • Assisting in implementing security for applications (OAuth / OIDC)
    • Specifyingbest practices for the federation's APIs
    • Selecting and implementing a newAPI Manager
    • Designing and implementing inter-application synchronization via events
    • Studying, implementing, and monitoring thecloud migrationof the IAM module toAWS

    This highly rewarding assignment allowed me to develop numerous skills.

Loïc quickly got up to speed with the code developed by others and with a technology (Geo from Business Geografic) he was not familiar with. We are very pleased with this collaboration.
