## Who am I?
|
|
|
|
Hello, and thanks for asking! My name is Julien Dessaux, and I am a {{< age >}} years old guy working in IT. Adyxax is the nickname I use on IRC, github, etc.
|
|
|
|
## Online presence
|
|
|
|
You won't find me on social networking websites. I have a Linkedin account that I don't use and that's it. I tried to make social networking work when I installed a pleroma instance
|
|
for my own use but I ended up trashing it. I just don't get this aspect of modern society. I hang out with my friends and we catch up : we talk about our lives, what happened to us. We share photos and
|
|
stories while having a drink... and that's it!
|
|
|
|
## Professional Career
|
|
|
|
I'm currently employed as a System and Network Architect at an awesome company named AlterWay, 4 years and counting. Before that I worked for 7 years at another awesome company named Intersec where I lead the IT team.
|
|
|
|
### Intersec
|
|
|
|
When I joined Intersec in September 2009 as the first full time system administrator we were just about 15 people. When I left in 2016 it had grown up to more than 160 people with
|
|
branch offices in three countries, and I am glad I was along for the ride. I have been the head of IT for about four years, participating in Intersec's growth by scaling the
|
|
infrastructure, deploying new services (Remote access, self hosted email, backups, monitoring, etc.), and recruiting my teammates. I left Intersec looking for new challenges and
|
|
for a new life away from the capital. Paris is one of the best cities on earth, but I needed a change and left for Lyon.
|
|
|
|
### AlterWay
|
|
|
|
I joined Alterway in October 2016 for a more technical role and a bit of a career shift towards networking. It has been a great experience.
