Laurent Gil

ManoMano, DevOps Coach, SRE, Certified AWS Architect

Passionate by technology and automation, I started my DevOps 🚊journey🚊 roughly 10 years ago in creating a first CI Jenkins pipelines. Few years later, I spread the DevOps culture across the DXC company as DevOps Coach.

During the DXC hours, I have been in charge of the AWS Cloud hosting the CI/CD tools chain. Among those tools, as administrator, I had the opportunity to scale the company Jenkins infrastructure to host more than 20K company jobs spread across more than 200 teams, to administrate JFrog Artifactory, and to deploy a monitoring stack to keep everything stable.

This CI/CD tool chain administrator role allowed me to discover the AWS cloud. In accordance with my DevOps culture and because I had to provide the company client with services, I embraced the SRE path.

At the same time, I also discovered Kubernetes and I self-educated until I had enough knowledge to become a Kubernetes evangelist.

Nowadays, I am still passionate about :

  • ❤️Cloud
  • ❤️Infrastructure
  • ❤️Kubernetes
  • ❤️Coaching
  • ❤️DevOps
  • ❤️Automation

    and I do my best to remains at the cutting edge of this technologies and movement.
