Reliably

Reliably is a platform to help organisations turn reliability into a conscious activity that reduces engineers anxiety while supporting the business need for innovation and users happiness.

Reliability is not just about the availability of your systems, it's acknowledging the deep connection between users and engineers and the impact on the business when this connection is healthy and positive.

At Reliably, we deeply care for engineers being able to deliver the best outcome they can to their users. An organisation which doesn't proactively work on reliability cannot have a positive effect on either.

Atomist

Atomist, startup founded by Rod Johnson, is the automation API for software to help you deliver faster software. As a senior software & system engineer, I worked with my team mates with a strong devops culture to make Atomist a success. 

Within the team, I specialized in our platform needs by maintaining our Kubernetes clusters in our AWS environment. To help the team understand our systems, I setup monitoring and logging solutions (DataDog and Logz.io respectively). Both became essentials aspects of learning and adapting at Atomist.

I also worked closely with the team on the product effort by designing and delivering features on the backend services as well as the Atomist open source projects.

Simplicity Itself

As part of the Simplicity Itself brilliant team, we are designing the next generation event-based microservices in cloud oriented ecosystems.

Microservices and cloud-native lead architect

Envivio

From October 2014 to December 2015, I have focused my attention on running Envivio products within Docker containers on the OpenStack platform, orchestrating them with the Apache Mesos/Marathon framework. I started from scratch and completed a demo of the video delivery products, demonstrating the capabilities of service orchestration to support linear and non-linear scenarios (upgrades, rollbacks, scalability, elasticity...).

I trained myself on Docker, made recommendations to adapt products to microservices and containers, trained people on Docker, automated the deployment of a full demo on OpenStack. I also introduced the teams to service discovery using Consul as well as Weave to support the network requirements.

Before that, until October 2014, I was responsible for the design, development and delivery of tools to support testing requirements of various teams. Initially, I provided solutions to help teams being more efficient on their automated testing tasks (functional, integration and quality) before becoming, during fall 2013, scrum master of a small team of four that implemented most testing tool requirements at Envivio. During that period, I kept on developping on the tools while making sure the rest of the team got up to speed with the design and best practices I had originally setup.

Those tasks required that I understood Envivio's products, their usage, environment and scenarios. As I supported teams at different stage of the delivery process, from developers to QA and ecosystem testers, I had to adapt my mindset to various requirements and constraints while providing as much continuity as possible in the tools in order to reduce the overlap between each phase and offer visibility to managers and users of the tools.

Senior Software Engineer

GFI Informatique

As part of the Envivio engineering teams, I'm responsible for defining the functional testing strategy as well federate teams around a common testing path in order to improve the product's delivery. The first step has been to set up tools to provide a unified ground for all the teams to speak a common language. In this case, we've settled for Robot Framework, a generic automation testing framework as well as Jenkins for continuous integration.

Lead Developer

Tesnet Group Ltd

Lead Performance Tester for Marks & Spencer using Mercury LoadRunner & Performance Center products. Within a team of five members, I was responsible for projects the team leader would assign to me from start to finish. Tasks would go from meeting the customers, gathering information, understanding the environment in which the application would be used, its constraints and the objective set by the customer. Then, devise a load test scenario, define risks and mitigation for them. Finally, after approval, write scripts using Load Runner, then Performance Center, executed with the appropriate parameters and environment. A great experience which helped realize how much testing was a challenging task, both technically and from a communication's perspective.
