Tristan Pilat

Hello all! My name is Tristan and I currently work for Evolix, a hosting and outsourcing company, as a system and network architect.

I hold a BTS IG ARLE (two-year post A-level course) Specialization ARLE (Director of Local Business Networks), an ATC Licence (BSc equivalent) in Technical Communication Option Design and Realization of Online Service and a Master’s Degree in Instrumentation Specialization Telecommunication and Network Systems.

I have been interested in IT for a number of years now, particularly Unix systems (mainly Debian and OpenBSD) and the Open Source world in general. I have also done some web development, but nothing too recent.

In my spare time I like to hike, run and paraglide. I also took pictures for a while.

Below I have set out my skills (both in Network and System) and my employment history to show you what knowledge and experiences that I have.

MY PATH

I started to build on my Network and System knowledge whilst studying for my BTS. This gave me the insight and skills required for the job of system and network administrator and the opportunity to discover the Open Source world.

I did some training graphic tools and web design, as I wanted to be recognized as competent in this area. I enrolled onto ‘ATC’, a professional licence, before considering the end of my studies.

As a result of all my training I developed a strong passion for web design technics, and more specifically network and UNIX/Linux systems.

Eager to find a job as a system and network architect, I studied for a Master’s Degree in Instrumentation Specialisation of Telecommunication and Network Systems.

Thanks for looking…
