About Xavier

Hello đź‘‹

I take care of highlighting your applications by making them as available as possible. 💯​

âś… Systems and network infrastructure:

  • Creation of your resources via IaC (Terraform / Terragrunt)
  • Cloud (AWS, Azure) or on-premise (VMware, Proxmox)

âś… Deployment and maintenance of your applications:

  • Automation of deployments (ArgoCD, Ansible...)
  • High availability of your services
  • Updating your dependencies (backward compatibility)

âś… Security and alerts:

  • Compliance with security standards (OWASP, ANSSI)
  • Alerts and dashboards for your applications

Focused on large accounts (SNCF, Bouygues Telecom...), I also adapt my expertise to smaller environments (Kayrros, Doxallia) by using a universal methodology if necessary, ITIL.
