Experience

  • LittleBigConnection
    Senior DevOps Engineer
    DIGITAL AND IT
    February 2021 - Today (5 years and 4 months)
    Bordeaux, France
    I 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).

    DIGITAL AND IT
    May 2018 - February 2021 (2 years and 9 months)
    Paris, France
    During 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.
    • Continuous integration and deployment from GitLab CI
    • Observability and alerting on application and infrastructure component logs/metrics using Azure tools (Log Analytics, Azure Monitor) and then the Elasticsearch/Logstash/Kibana stack
    I also wrote the company's SaaS product back-office in Javascript (NodeJS, ReactJS), as well as integrating third-party tools into the SaaS in Javascript and Python (Partoo, Google My Business).
