Structured development vision (Think & Build) - Strong ability to execute (Build & Run) - Senior leadership for software development and cloud operations. Propose technology vision in line with strategic plan.Currently CTO Digital Identity @GIE SESAM-Vitale, a highly experienced team in information systems for healthcare professionals and institutions, fully mobilised to implement the sate digital healthcare roadmap.With managerial and technical skills, able to re-shape the software engineering culture around Agile, CMMi , DevOps, innovation, digitalisation (move to SaaS).Working in an international context for almost 20 years, I have built engineering teams in different countries (Europe, North America, India, China) in partnership with large Japanese and American groups.I have worked with major clients such as Altice Group, Netflix, Danone.I believe that my first position as co-CTO in a startup @London was a marker of this choice to work in an international context from the beginning.My degree of adaptability allowed me to quickly move from the world of banking identity (US Department of Defense, VISA, CB, Japan Credit Bureau, Dai Nipon Printing, Royal Bank of Canada) to the digital television ecosystem (Canal+, Vodafone, Samsung, Altice) or for the supply chain - EDI environment (Danone, FM, Carrefour, LVMH) and now for the French State Digital Health roadmap.
