Description

Expert Infrastructure Senior with over 20 years of experience.

Specialist in the design, modernization, and optimization of critical infrastructures (AWS/Azure Cloud, Citrix, Storage, Big Data, and Micro-services).

I am recognized for my ability to lead complex migration projects (AVS → Azure, AIX → Linux, Oracle → MongoDB), to significantly reduce costs (example: reduction of outsourcing costs from €2.7M to €1M at Foncia), and to industrialize environments through automation (Ansible, Terraform, OpenShift, Kubernetes) and advanced use of Artificial Intelligence.
