Patrice Levesque is a seasoned systems administrator and architect with over a decade of experience designing and running high-availability, virtualized infrastructures for web and groupware services. He has managed fleets of up to sixty servers across hybrid VM/container environments, led datacenter migrations, and built CI/CD integrations (notably Jenkins) and custom monitoring/alerting solutions. Comfortable from network layer to client layer, he pairs hands-on server-side development and Drupal experience with strong automation skills using Puppet, Docker/DC/OS, Proxmox and related Linux toolchains. Patrice has contributed to the SOGo groupware codebase by fixing compiler and header issues, reflecting a pragmatic attention to code quality in widely used open-source projects. Based in Montreal, he seeks diversified system administration roles where operational rigor and practical engineering intersect.
SOGo is a very fast and scalable modern collaboration suite (groupware). It offers calendaring, address book management, and a full-featured Webmail client along with resource sharing and permission handling. It also makes use of documented standards (IMAP, CalDAV, CardDAV, etc.) and thereby provides native connectivity (without plugins) to many clients such as Microsoft Outlook, Apple iCal, the iPhone, Mozilla Lightning, and a plethora of mobile devices.
