Open Source

Open Source Software is the backbone of my professional life. I learned a lot from others, I meet many great people, and I massively reused other people’s works. So I am doing my best to contribute back. Here are some of my contributions.

Project

Jenkins

I led the infrastructure initiatives that provide services to the Jenkins community. I was also involve in other areas like project governance or outreach initiatives.

Updatecli

Updatecli is a tool that I created to continuously update everything. It’s used to automatically update infrastructure by opening pull request when a third application release a new version.

Conference

Technical conferences are one of the best ways to meet new people, so if you spot me in one of those, feel free to say "Hi", I am also there for that.

Attendee

My area of interest is everything related to open source and infrastructure. In the past, I attended events like Fosdem, Kubecon, Devoxxx, Jenkins/Devops World, CDcon, cfgmgmnt camp, DevOps Days, etc.

Organisor

When you can’t reach a community that shares your interest, sometimes the best way is to make that community come to you by organizing something that will gather them. In the past, I helped to organize "Jenkins area meetups" and the FOSDEM CI/CD Devroom.

Speaker

Without considering myself an "experienced" speaker, I like to take any opportunities that I have to share what I learned.
