From consulting to product, all the way to production

Three pillars, one common thread: platforms and products that hold up under load, pass audits, and stay simple to operate.

01

Cloud / Platform consulting & expertise

A platform is judged in production, not on a diagram. I audit what exists, design the target architecture, and lead migrations — Cluster Autoscaler to Karpenter on the platform serving 600+ organizations at ENGIE, 140 banking machines to the cloud at BNP Paribas, an OpenShift audit on sovereign cloud for the Government of Monaco. Regulated environments — PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, classified data — are my daily work.

  • Audits: infrastructure, Kubernetes, security, FinOps
  • Target cloud & hybrid architecture
  • Migrations: cloud, GitOps, Karpenter
  • Observability: Grafana, Mimir, Loki, Tempo
  • Policy-as-code: Kyverno, OPA/Gatekeeper
  • CI/CD at scale: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, ArgoCD
  • Day-2 ops: upgrades, capacity, reliability
  • Regulated environments & sovereign cloud

Who it's for

  • CTOs and technical leadership
  • Heads of Platform / Infrastructure
  • Engineering Managers of DevOps & SRE teams
  • CIOs in regulated or sovereign environments

Typical deliverables

  • Audit report: findings, prioritized risks, costed action plan
  • Target architecture dossier with scenario comparison and ROI
  • Milestone-based migration plan, with a rollback strategy
  • Production-ready CI/CD pipelines and GitOps configurations
  • Technical briefs and runbooks for your teams
  • Architecture and knowledge-transfer workshops

Engagement formats

Staff augmentation

I join your team a few days a week or full time, on-site or remote — build, run, and knowledge transfer along the way.

Fixed price

Scope, deliverables, and price set at the framing stage — target architecture, migration, or observability stack: you know what you get, and when.

Flash audit

One week to put your platform under the microscope: interviews, technical review, then a written and oral debrief — findings, prioritized risks, costed action plan.

How we start

  1. 01

    Intro call

    Thirty minutes over video, no commitment, to understand your context and what needs to change.

  2. 02

    Framing

    I dig into the current state with your teams and we define the scope, the deliverables, and the engagement format.

  3. 03

    Proposal

    You receive a written proposal — scope, schedule, price — within 48 h.

02

Solution development

Full-stack web (Next.js, Go, Node), mobile, internal platforms, MVPs: I build cloud-native products that are secure and highly available. My differentiator fits in one sentence: the same engineer designs the product and the platform that runs it — the code, the pipeline, the monitoring, and the backups all come from the same hands. That is how I built Nkube: Go backend, Next.js frontend, infrastructure as code, multi-cloud.

  • Full-stack web: Next.js, Go, Node
  • iOS & Android mobile applications
  • Internal platforms & team tooling
  • MVPs: a first useful version, fast
  • Cloud-native by design: containers, IaC, CI/CD
  • Security & high availability by default

Who it's for

  • Project owners with a product to launch
  • CTOs and founders of startups & scale-ups
  • Business units that need an internal tool
  • Product teams short on platform capacity

Typical deliverables

  • A product in production — not a demo
  • Documented and tested source code, handed over in full
  • CI/CD pipeline and reproducible infrastructure as code
  • Monitoring, alerting, and backups configured
  • Operations documentation and handover to your teams

Engagement formats

Fixed price

The go-to format for a product or an MVP: scope, milestones, and price set at the framing stage, with a working delivery at every step.

Staff augmentation

A senior reinforcement in your product team, able to take on the frontend, the backend, or the platform — wherever things are stuck.

Run & evolutions

After go-live: monitoring, fixes, and ongoing improvements, so the product keeps living.

How we start

  1. 01

    Intro call

    You tell me about the idea, the target users, and the deadline; I tell you frankly what is realistic.

  2. 02

    Framing

    We define the first useful version: features, architecture, delivery milestones.

  3. 03

    Proposal

    You receive a detailed proposal — work packages, schedule, price — within 48 h.

Golden Kubestronaut

Training

I prepare your teams for the 16 certifications of the Golden Kubestronaut track — CKA, CKAD, CKS, KCNA, and the rest — and I introduce them to the fundamentals: Docker, Kubernetes, GitOps, observability, CI/CD. Every exam I teach, I have taken myself; and I train the way I operate: hands-on, on concrete cases. On-site at your company, in person or remote, in French or in English.

  • Golden Kubestronaut track: all 16 CNCF certifications + LFCS
  • Introductions: Docker, Kubernetes, container security
  • AWS / Azure / GCP cloud, GitOps & ArgoCD
  • Grafana observability, GitHub Actions CI/CD
  • In-house, in person or remote, FR/EN

Typical deliverables

  • Course materials and hands-on labs on a cluster
  • Mock exams in the exam format — the tools I built for my own certifications
  • Individual follow-up recommendations after the session

Who it's for

  • DevOps, SRE, and platform teams
  • Developers getting started with Kubernetes
  • Training managers and CTOs structuring upskilling
  • Candidates for CNCF and Linux Foundation certifications

Engagement formats

In-house

For your team, on your premises: the program adapts to your stack and your real-world cases.

Remote

The same program at a distance: short, interactive video sessions, cluster labs included.

French or English

I deliver every course in both languages, on weekdays or weekends, materials included.

How we start

  1. 01

    Intro call

    You tell me who to train, on which topics, and by when — certification or fundamentals.

  2. 02

    Framing

    We pick the path from the catalog and I adjust it to the participants' actual level.

  3. 03

    Proposal

    You receive your quote within 48 h — often within minutes.
