There I had the opportunity to rework many core systems and processes that helped the company grow in many ways. + +On the networking side I helped put in production and operate our anti-ddos systems and reworked then maintained our bgp configurations for that purpose. I also lead the upgrade project of our core network to 100G and implemented a virtualized pre-production of all the core devices. This allowed the industrialization of the configuration management by implementing a custom tool for generating and deploying the configurations. + +I also maintained and improved the way we operate our netapp storage clusters by automating processes and standardizing configurations. This allowed to rework the way we operate our PRA to reduce downtimes and allow for proper testing of the PRA before we need it. The backup solution was then redesigned from the ground up to fit the scale and workloads of alter way. On a final note I had the opportunity to work on the redesign of how we deploy and operate alter way's public cloud offering (networking, storage and compute). + +It has been a great and diversified experience. + +### Intersec + +Intersec is a software company in the telecommunication sector. + +I joined Intersec as a trainee in April 2009, then as the company's first full time system administrator in September 2009.
