As a system administrator, I was responsible and autonomous for an automation project aimed at globally managing Vinci Energie's assets, to enable automatic and controlled patching on various OS/Applications, as well as more global server management.

This solution allows Vinci Energies to save on licenses from other third-party solutions and gives us full control over our asset management.

As a DevOps Lead, I was responsible for implementing a new solution while transferring knowledge and organizing work within the "Automation Expertise" department. I also assist various Ops/Dev teams with technical issues within our scope.

In accordance with the agile methodology, I ensured transparency on the solution's progress to deliver a final result that met the initial needs as well as new technical challenges.

- Development of Python/Bash scripts

- Coaching of the DevOps team

- Proposal and implementation of new solutions

- Communication in English & French with different teams

- Documentation of different processes.

- Management of formal and informal incidents (Ansible, Ansible Tower, ArgoCd, VMWARE, Artifactory, Docker, Vault)

- POC on ArgoCd tool (continuous delivery tool) in a Kubernetes context.

- Development of a continuous integration solution on XLRELEASE

As a SysOps/DevOps, my mission was to bring greater visibility & transparency to the different AWS instances in terms of RUN and compliance.

This mission allowed me to improve my skills on the AWS provider and to be able to respond to certain RUN issues. "Analysis" is what allowed me to highlight various more or less crucial problems, which I was able to solve in time by providing technical solutions myself.

- Monitoring of various ServiceNow incidents

- Creation and management of Dynatrace resources

- Creation of solutions using AWS (Lambda, SSM, S3, Glue)

- Performing Windows patches (Automatically & Manually)

- Creation of a generous amount of documentation covering work done, in progress, and objectives.

- Improvement of PowerShell scripts (APIs: AWS & Dynatrace)

- Creation of Google Chat / Gmail / AWS / Dynatrace Triggers

- Participation in the development of the new AWS architecture

- Proposal, creation, and implementation of an automated & serverless solution to address the initial problem.
