About Me

🚀 Lead Architect | Cloud & DevOps Enthusiast | Scaling Distributed Systems

I specialize in designing and building scalable, high-performance cloud solutions at Scaleway. With a strong background in DevOps and a passion for containerization, I thrive on automating processes, optimizing infrastructure, and solving complex technical challenges. My philosophy is simple: if you do it twice, automate it!—saving time, reducing errors, and improving reliability.

Passionate about Linux and open-source technologies, I believe that collaboration drives better code and more powerful tools. Outside of work, I enjoy sharing knowledge through meetups, tech communities, and mentoring, always looking to exchange ideas and push the boundaries of cloud innovation.

Let’s connect and build the future of cloud together! 🌍⚡
