What I'm looking for

I’m targeting Senior IT Manager, IT Infrastructure Manager, or Network Operations Manager roles locally and abroad.

At GIZ CAMEROON, I led IT operations, network infrastructure management, and ISO 27001 implementation across six sites in Cameroon, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, and Sao Tome, preparing the organization for certification.

I managed the Cisco Meraki network and administered Microsoft Azure, Azure Active Directory, Microsoft 365, and Intune across the sites. I also coordinated cross-border IT service delivery, subcontractor SLAs, procurement, and the One-Client Migration project.

At EMERGENCE GROUP, I integrated Odoo with Transparency to support customer management, invoicing, and financial administration. The integration reduced development overhead and improved operational visibility; I also managed infrastructure, procurement, and backup and recovery. I’m targeting Senior IT Manager, IT Infrastructure Manager, or Network Operations Manager roles locally and abroad.
