XY Problem solver. he/him.

My name is Hugo, and I’m a 29-year-old SWE [1].

I’m into food (both restaurants and cooking), sport (my current obsessions are indoor cycling and calisthenics), and am an amateur photographer. I speak French (native), English (bilingual), and Spanish (broken).

I started working with computers and networks by volunteering for an associative ISP during my studies. Today, I make a living trying to understand how computers work [2].

Depending on the company, my role can be called DevOps, SRE, SWE, Ops, or Online Developer.

I have solid Kubernetes, Linux, and security experience and can troubleshoot complex issues across the stack. When designing systems, I emphasize simplicity and intelligibility. I also focus on end-user success and thrive in support roles.

Some parts of this website are in french, like the pages about Montréal.
