About

As the Technical Director of Enterprise Integration & Event Practice (#api #ipaas #eda) for CGI Digital Innovation Center, I lead and mentor a team of over 100 experts across Paris, Rennes, Avignon, and Montpellier, driving the development and delivery of innovative digital transformation solutions. I collaborate closely with strategic partners including #MuleSoft, #WSO2, #Boomi, #Gravitee, #Informatica, #Confluent, #Solace, #Workato, #Google, and #Axway to design and implement cutting-edge API, iPaaS, and event-driven architectures that help clients modernize their IT and optimize their digital ecosystems. In my leadership role, I oversee business development, providing strategic guidance across the entire IT integration lifecycle—from selecting the right technologies to managing large-scale, multi-phase integration projects. I work closely with clients to shape their digital transformation roadmaps, define optimal technical architectures, and ensure the seamless execution of these projects. My focus is on reducing integration costs, accelerating time-to-market, and driving measurable business outcomes, including improved operational efficiency, cost optimization, and increased solution reusability. We drive integration transformations that enable real-time synchronization across their systems, supported by business activity monitoring and modern observability tools, reducing the number of integrations and minimizing run/maintenance costs through automated error recovery. Our team serves over 30 clients globally across various industries, delivering a range of services from Strategic Integration Consulting to Integration Centers of Excellence. With an average client satisfaction score of 9.57/10, technological expertise rating of 9.8/10, and a perfect 10/10 value of services across 20+ client evaluations, we continually exceed client expectations and deliver measurable, exceptional results.
