Guillaume Abrioux is a software engineering professional with 12 years’ experience designing and operating cloud-native storage and deployment tooling, currently at IBM after a multi-year tenure at Red Hat. He brings deep expertise in DevOps and back-end engineering, with notable open-source contributions to the Ceph ecosystem—improving ceph-volume, ceph-ansible and ceph-container for containerized, IPv6 and CentOS8 deployments. Guillaume’s work spans automation (Ansible/Puppet), production readiness, testing, and hardware-aware storage orchestration, reflecting hands-on experience deploying OpenStack and large-scale storage platforms for customers. He combines systems-level troubleshooting with feature development (e.g., TPM2 token enrollment for encrypted OSDs) and a strong focus on reliability and operability. Based in Orsay, France, he is comfortable navigating both customer-facing consulting roles and deep upstream engineering in complex distributed systems.
