Hi 👋 I'm François,

Senior DevOps Engineer / Software Engineer
Portrait of François Le Pape

I am a french engineer with a focus on Platform Engineering, SRE, and Developer Experience. I help teams ship quickly and confidently by working on cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, GitOps, observability, CI/CD, serverless, and the tooling around production systems.

I am based in Paris and currently work at Contentful. Outside of work, I write about practical software engineering, speak at Talks & Conferences about GitOps and platform practices, and build Personal Projects like GitNotifier and FixTheOps.
