Hi there, I am a platform engineer with more than 12 years experience in different IT fields starting by IT technician for about 18 months, then worked at different network, virtualization and storage projects as Dell Geo Partner. I have then moved to operation role as VMware and Storage administrator at Bell Canada. Few years late I was willing to start with my automation journey so I started as DevOps for a global payment processing public company. I have learn using bash and Ansible at that point (about 5 years ago). I have spend almost 3 year at this company where I learn most of the stuff I use until today. My next experience was with a small Cyber Security local company where I worked as DevSecOps and automated lots of the boring infrastructure stuff. I also worked on some very existing R&D security projects at that time. I am now SRE Engineer at Morgan Stanley and use all my previous experience in this job to help the company get to the next level of efficiency. I have a lot of different certifications, my share any of them but to summarize, I have a VCP since 2013, I also have the Brocade BCNP (Yeah, I know, it does not exist anymore, but all the network concepts I learn passing the BCNE and the BCNP are still useful and will be in the future). I also have some storage certifications from different vendors. Hope this is enough, my experience is way more existing than that, but I cannot put all here :)
