Knowledge Sharing
Technical Articles

M y name is Pierre COLLARD, Network, Security and System Architect. My mission is to enable companies to increase their productivity and profits while reducing operating costs by leveraging the most advanced and cutting-edge technologies.

EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND

Fifth-year student preparing a Master's degree in I.T at Y-Nov (France). I moved in Los Angeles to complete my studies and get a Project Management Gold Certificate at UCLA. It is crucial for me to keep a global vision on the market and stay tuned, not only as a technical architect, but also as a flexible and evolving player in a world of opportunities.

CAREER

2 years' of experience at Dimension Data for Airbus Group, Europe. As a network and unified communications engineer operating within a European context, I obtained experience in large scale data centers and coordinated deployment projects across different countries.

Spent 2 years as the university's infrastructure laboratory leader. Managed around 70 students and put in place a complete testing environment, including virtualization clusters, network design and security solutions.

Enthusiastic about knowledge sharing and training delivery : I provided our university (Y-Nov) CCNP level training sessions for a year.
