Description

🚀 Senior Solution Architect & DevOps | TOGAF, Cloud, Kubernetes & Critical Infrastructure

IT Solution Architect (TOGAF Certified) | Cloud & DevOps Expert

💡 My Promise: From strategy to zero-defect execution. With 20+ years in architecture and engineering, I bridge strategic vision (TOGAF, ITIL) and technical reality (DevOps, IaC). I optimize performance, secure critical systems (CIS Benchmarks), simplify complex enterprise environments, and enable digital transformation with measurable impact.

Core Expertise:

Architecture & Governance: Defining IT vision, roadmaps, enterprise standards, modeling systems (ArchiMate/UML), and secure deployment of COTS solutions.

DevOps & Cloud: Designing robust GitOps CI/CD pipelines (ArgoCD, GitHub Actions), Kubernetes/OpenShift/Docker for HA, hybrid cloud (AWS, GCP, VMware), and automating infrastructure with Ansible and Terraform.

Security & Operations: Hardening Linux/Windows systems, Zero Trust, secrets management (Vault), modern auth (Keycloak, mTLS, LDAP/OAuth2), Observability (ELK, Prometheus/Grafana), proactive incident management, and audit readiness.

🛠️ Technical Fluency:

IaC/Automation: Terraform, Ansible, Python | Orchestration/CI/CD: Kubernetes, OpenShift, ArgoCD, Docker | Security/IAM: Vault, Keycloak, CIS Benchmarks | Modeling/Process: TOGAF, ArchiMate, ITIL V4

🔎 Approach: Rooted in civil engineering, I pursue elegant, efficient designs. Passionate about innovation, I maintain projects like clickceler, an AI-driven system for time series analysis using Symbolic/Logic AI. Fluent in French/English, I excel at transversal facilitation, documentation, and international collaboration, delivering actionable insights and practical solutions.

Sectors: Energy (Elia), EU Institutions (EEAS, eu-LISA), Telecom, Finance.
