Objective

I've just finished my computer science master's degree, specializing in IT Security, and I am looking for job opportunities in London. I have solid knowledge and experience in both IT security and software development with an additional know-how in DevOps methods: automating quality testing, security checks and deployment.

I'm looking for a first job that would allow me to make the best of my skills as both a developer and an IT security engineer. I want to work with motivated and inspiring people on interesting projects. I am passionate about IT and enjoy being challenged on a day to day basis. I also believe it's essential in this field to continually seek progress, learn new things and keep an eye out for new technologies and vulnerabilities.

What I Do

I'm a dual national French-English engineer, graduating from a joint master's degree at Télécom SudParis, Paris and Eurecom, Sophia-Antipolis. I'm currently undergoing my last semester at Amadeus in London as an Information Systems Security Intern.

Experience

Now

Information Systems Security Internship
Amadeus, London, UK

I'm currently working at Amadeus as an intern in the AIR-SAT team (Airline Security Architecture and Technology). The internship includes several projects that combine software development and security engineering. I'm working as a DevSecOps, comparing existing solutions for static and dynamic security scans and implementing them within a Jenkins CI/CD pipeline. I've also created a self-service reverse proxy where tool owners are able to create their own DNS subroute and update a HAproxy configuration. This solution will enable authentication and accountability over a secure network zone.
Summer 2018
Software Development Internship
MyMiniFactory, London, UK
I created a 3D customizer software in Javascript capable of manipulating & transforming 3D files in the web browser. This tool could also export the output files into a 3D printable format for the user. I Learned several skills during this work experience like software project plannification and execution, I worked with new frameworks like React.js and Three.js
Summer 2017

Humanitarian Internship
AIESEC, Colombo, Sri Lanka

The internship was centered around using my skills and talents to help others. The internship after the first year in engineering school was the perfect moment for me to realise this project. I registered to a humanitarian project to help improve the drinking water situation in Sri Lanka through awareness sessions in schools and by distributing water filters in poor villages. I created a website to raise awareness of water pollution and to publish articles on the subject.
2016 - 2017

Project Manager
Comput'INT (Long term group project), Paris

A humanitarian project in Tunisia organized from start to finish to help secondary schools find computers for educational purposes. We contacted companies for funding and donations of equipment and were able to collect 2500€ and 65 computers. We also created a website to promote our project.
