- LittleBigConnectionSenior DevOps EngineerDIGITAL AND ITFebruary 2021 - Today (5 years and 4 months)Bordeaux, FranceI collaborated within a team of several engineers to migrate on-premise workloads to the cloud and promote a DevOps culture within the IT department.These applications evolved from a monolithic architecture to a micro-service architecture hosted in Kubernetes + ArgoCD, accompanied by a complete DevOps environment:
- Continuous integration and deployment from GitLab CI
- Observability and alerting on application and infrastructure component logs/metrics using the Elasticsearch/Logstash/Kibana stack
- Detection and resolution of security vulnerabilities using Trivy and Renovate
I also managed on-premise applications using the same infrastructure as code tools as those used to manage cloud applications (Ansible and Terraform).During these 5 years at LittleBigConnection, I participated in implementing good security practices (DevSecOps), such as detecting and resolving security vulnerabilities as mentioned above, but also:- The principle of least privilege (PoLP), using Hashicorp Vault for managing access policies and distributing credentials to employees and applications
- Single Sign-On (SSO) for employees across all tools via OIDC using Auth0/Okta then Azure AD
- Authentication of applications between themselves via the exchange of tokens (JWT) distributed from Hashicorp Vault
When necessary, I also developed infrastructure and data processing services in Python and GoLang using cloud provider APIs (Scaleway, Azure) and infrastructure components (Kubernetes). - OctopulseCo-founderDIGITAL AND ITMay 2018 - February 2021 (2 years and 9 months)Paris, FranceDuring my studies, I developed an all-in-one SEO solution tailored for small businesses, which led to the creation of Octopulse with other partners, as well as several fundraising rounds (seed, series A).I built the company's infrastructure from scratch on Azure and Google Cloud, as well as a complete DevOps environment around it.
