Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJean-baptiste Boric is an experienced Ingénieur Consultant Informatique based in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes with 11 years building robust, low-level and infrastructure software. He combines datacenter monitoring, system/network administration and CI platform deployment for enterprise clients (notably Eaton) with hands-on embedded and OS-level development in prominent open-source projects like NumWorks' Epsilon, SerenityOS and MINIX. His contributions span kernel locking refactors, filesystem rewrites, SNMPv3 and UPS protocol enhancements, and adding a GDB server to an emulator—demonstrating deep expertise in operating systems, firmware and backend protocols. Comfortable across C/C++ and system tooling, he brings an uncommon blend of datacenter ops experience and low-level engineering, driven by a taste for "increasing entropy" and improving reliability from the hardware up.
