Alex Foulon
DevOps Engineer at Scality
Paris, Ile-de-France
Summary
👤
SeniorAlex Foulon is a DevOps engineer with 11 years of experience building and operating Linux-first infrastructure for VFX studios and web platforms from Paris. He combines system administration (Debian, Red Hat/Fedora), datacenter operations and automation—including a PXE-based render farm deployment—with Python and shell development to deliver reliable, reproducible environments. As IT Department Manager at Fix Studio VFX and a long-time contractor for animation houses, he bridges technical ops and creative pipelines, authoring After Effects integrations and custom tooling. His background at Scality and Oxalide reflects hands-on work in monitoring, failover and large-scale web services. Comfortable across Windows and macOS desktops as well as open-source server stacks (Zimbra, Samba, NFS, DNS/DHCP), he favors pragmatic automation over tool sprawl. A practical polyglot (Python, shell, JavaScript), he quietly accelerates production workflows by turning one-off fixes into repeatable systems.
