Summary
Julien Avenet is a Senior DevOps / Site Reliability Engineer with nine years of experience building and operating production-critical infrastructure for large enterprises like Orange, EDF and ADEO. He specializes in cloud-native architectures (AWS, GCP), Kubernetes, Terraform/Terragrunt, CI/CD automation and observability, and has led CDN and anti-bot efforts for high-traffic e-commerce sites. Julien combines hands-on incident firefighting and level-2 support with proactive reliability work—automation, Terraform IaC, and monitoring—to keep financial and retail services available at scale. He has repeatedly driven migrations to the cloud, created ephemeral environments for developers, and established production standards for CDN configurations and certificate/DNS automation. Comfortable across Linux/Unix environments and multiple tooling stacks, he moves quickly between hands-on ops and developer enablement. A solo backpacker who’s worked across many countries, he brings an international, curious mindset that fuels continuous learning and cross-team collaboration.
