About Maxime

I am an engineer and I enjoy creating software solutions for concrete problems: automating time-consuming tasks, enabling communication between disparate systems, and transforming manual, fragile processes into reliable tools.

Graduated from CY Tech (formerly EISTI), I started at Thales as an automatic test tools developer, and today I code in Python and PowerShell whenever a task deserves more than a human repeating it.
Some examples of what I build:

  • An internal dashboard that centralizes and prioritizes alerts from our agent fleet: turning noise into actionable signals.
  • An automation between our monitoring system and our ERP—creating tickets and automatically provisioning agents per server based on a preference algorithm, where everything used to be done manually.
What makes my tools truly useful is that they are designed for real-world use. On a daily basis, I administer actual SME infrastructures: Active Directory, Entra ID, Intune, Exchange Online, Sophos XGS (certified), OPNsense, Hyper-V, Veeam, 3CX. Therefore, I have a deep understanding of the environments where my code will run: identities, network, security, backups.
I complement this with an offensive and defensive security approach (AD pentesting in school: Kerberoasting, DCSync, ACL/GPO abuse; hardening firewalls/EDR/MFA/segmentation in real-world scenarios): when I design a solution, I also consider its attack surface.

Concretely, I can develop a custom complex tool, automate a business process, integrate systems that need to communicate, and, if the need arises, audit or secure the accompanying infrastructure.
Give me a specific problem in a complex environment: I will design the solution, make it reliable, and document it.
