Skills in Networks & Telecommunications

Administrate

When managing computer networks, I am guided by a methodical approach focused on the customer's specific needs. I start with a detailed analysis of the network infrastructure and the customer's expectations. This initial assessment enables me to design an appropriate administration strategy.

Then, I implement robust administration procedures and policies to ensure system availability and performance. I use tools such as management consoles and command interfaces to configure and manage network equipment.

I also carry out regular infrastructure audits to identify and resolve potential problems before they affect users. The documentation and reports I produce help maintain a clear and up-to-date overview of the network's status, easing proactive and reactive administration.

Connecting

When connecting and integrating networks, I adopt an approach focused on reliable, high-performance connectivity. I start with a study of users' connectivity needs and infrastructure requirements.

Using network design tools such as “draw.io”, I create detailed network topologies that meet the project's specific requirements. These diagrams include the layout of cabling, equipment and links needed to ensure adequate coverage and redundancy.

Once the plans have been validated, I install and configure the equipment. I check network stability by testing bandwidth and latency with tools like nPerf. This approach ensures that the connection is optimized for user applications.

Programming

In programming, my goal is to develop effective solutions that meet the specific needs of users and systems. I start by understanding the functional and technical requirements of the project.

I then choose the most appropriate languages for development, such as Python for automating network tasks or JavaScript for interactive user interfaces. My programming approach includes clean coding practices and testing to ensure code reliability and optimization.

Finally, I document the code, making it easier to understand and maintain. I also implement version control systems, such as “git”, to track changes and collaborate effectively with other developers.

Securing

To secure systems and networks, I take a strategic approach to protecting data and infrastructure from potential threats and ensuring a recovery strategy in the event of a breach. I start with a comprehensive risk and vulnerability assessment.

I then put in place appropriate security measures, such as implementing a firewall, configuring security policies and using encryption technologies with backup systems such as NAS or Cloud for remote backups. I use supervision tools to monitor and detect suspicious activity in real time.

I also carry out regular penetration tests and security audits to identify and correct vulnerabilities before they can be exploited. Finally, I sensitize and instruct users in good security practices to reinforce overall system protection.

Monitoring

Monitoring networks and systems is essential to ensure their performance and security. I use an integrated approach that combines real-time monitoring tools with historic analysis.

I deploy supervision solutions such as Nagios or Zabbix to monitor equipment and application performance. These tools enable me to quickly detect anomalies and potential breakdowns, ensuring a rapid and effective response.

I set up customized alerts and dashboards to track key performance indicators (KPIs) and service levels (SLAs). Finally, I analyze the data collected to identify trends and anticipate future needs, enabling proactive and optimized management of network and system resources.
